What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure to power OFF the ONT and RBR and RBS for 1 minute or longer after applying the FW update.
If problems continue a factory reset and setup from scratch will be needed.
it may not be a FW issue on your system, rather a hardware issue. Not everything if FW related.

The past 2 weeks - my router has randomly started rebooting. It would turn off and sometimes take 10 or 15 minutes to turn back on. It's been very frustrating. This was a 100% router based issue not anything to do with our Fios as we connect directly to the ONT and don't have a gateway or anything inbetween. The literal router was shutting down. I'm hoping that this update fixes it as it just became available and we just applied the update.

Reporting back after some days of testing with my RBR850+RBS850 with Ethernet backhaul, running in AP mode with 1Gbit/sync fiber over Fritz!Box Modem.
Generally I can say the switching to pink every 24h is history, the whole network is way more stable now.
Nonetheless, I’m facing random complete WiFi dropouts, causing the entire network to be inaccessible for some minutes, even wired devices. Sometimes only restarting the Satellite is helping.
If the satellite is off, everything is perfectly stable, so I have to assume it’s the combo of AP and satellite that make the WiFi break down.
20/40Ghz coexistence is off, but that didn’t solve much. The logs are absolutely useless and don’t contain anything.
I would need help to get this fixed 😞

Would you please start a new post in this forum and just copy and paste this last post text. I'd like to begin a targeted problem solving, I hope, post thread to see if we can narrow down where the problem maybe.
