Updated mine today. MANUALLY downloaded and manually updated RBS first the RBR lastly. No Facory reset. Just powered all units OFF for 30 seconds then back ON. 

 

Echo Dot had problems connecting and maintaining playing of music. First I thought it was IPv6 DNS and RBS configuration. Then I found the RBRs wireless channel set for 36 instead of 40. Set to 40, re-enabled IPv6 DNS and RBS and Dot has now been playing fine. 

 

Another item I noticed after v12 was loaded today, Both my RBS are ethernet connected to the RBR, however wireless devices connected at the RBS are now being reported on the RBRs web page as a wireless connection, even though the backhaul is wired. Very cool.
