new features with RBR 850/750

Hi, I'm using an RBR/RBS 20 pair now for more than a year, but I guess I need something more powerful!

 

I am considering to upgrade to RBR 750 or 850, but I am wondering if those new models are using the same firmware - with the same restrictions.

 

There are two pain points I have with the RBR20 firmware:

- Rebooting when activating/deactivating Guest Network takes long - I even do not understand, why rebooting is needed in this case!

- It is not possible to define time based restrictions for several devices, without using circle. 

 

Can anybody answer the question, if the newer models offer better configuration options and if the handling of the guest network has been implemented better?

 

Kind regards,

 

Thorsten
