Just for info: My RBR50 also runs in AP-mode with 3 RBSs at latest firmware. No issues so far. Furry is not the only one :-)
But my RBSs do a resync a few times a day, but internet connection is stable while this process. This behavior only exists with firmware 4.xxx

lol...
I rest my case. I do not know of a single instance of V4 firmware working correctly and stable in AP mode wirelessly.
I am guessing you probably had to do a special ip range setup for the DHCP or jumped through a few hoops...??
A product must simply worked as advertised, with no compliations or special to follow instructions.
RBR750 simply DOES NOT WORK IN AP MODE on V4 firmware.
But further on my point, it is IRRESPONSIBLE AND NOT PROFESSIONAL to make the product automatically update to a point of no return to a firmware full of bugs.
AP mode is just not the only bug.
Makes you wonder how or who tested the V4 firmware for them....
