So after a few days on the updated version, my network seems better. Speeds are now normal for the service I have. My devices are more evenly spread out on my system (before, they were mostly on the RBR750). All and all, I think the updated FW fixed my issues. Also, I am sorry, but I don’t feel comfortable sharing the file NG support sent me. Please don’t message me privately. Reach out to FURRYe38 or one of the moderators instead.
I installed the Beta last Thursdsay and so far I have not seen any of the issues I was experiencing prior.
Speeds are back to normal and the router has not gone offline and gone unresponsive.
Still tyring ot understand how the additon of parental controls made the units totally unstable. According to the release notes there was not much to this release only 5 bulleted items.
- And I can add. Added beta per instructions but did not do a factory reset.
The speeds have improved greatly, have noticed the load balancing has improved from before as before One satellite always had a lot more than the other. Now almost equally balanced.
Late Sunday night had my similar Issue were cell phone and 1/3 of wi-Fi devices go off-line and cannot reconnect to wifi. Did one reboot and all came back. Been fine since then will see how it progressesIt appears that NG released the beta to production last night. When I checked this morning the router was updated to 4.6.3.16_2.0.51. I then reset the router and satellites. As of now, things are working well. Speeds are good and connectivity to all devices appears to be stable. The reset of the router and satellites appears to be a key step with this update.

About time! Can't wait to get home and see if mine was updated... Oddly, NG had reached out to me in the past few days about my issue being endorsed by L2 Technical Support - hopefully OBE now. Thanks!
- Something in the code for DHCP was messing things up. Seems it had issues maintaining IP addresses for devices and satellites
