I recommend you update FW:
Hello,
Thank you for advising me to updat to the most recent FW. I followed your directions and successfully updated to the version you provided
which is "V4.6.7.5". After I had the router up and running I ran a test by cutting power to the router to see if when powered on, it would hold its wifi settings. It did.
I did this on a controlled limited basis utilizing only 2 devices and not my 2 satellites. Since it seems to work, I will roll back the version to where it was, then update the firmware on both the satellites, then the router. Then I will fully engage and hope for the best.
Thank you for your fast help, and patience!
Please let me know if you disagree with my methodology.

For problem reproduction you can revert back to the version where you had seen it of course. Or just maintain whats currently working.
Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping on the current loaded version of FW. Saves time if a reset is needed.
