1.0.1.64_1.0.27 firmware update
Hi, My RAX80 is showing 1.0.1.64_1.0.27 firmware as being available for update (from 1.0.1.62) but I can't find any release notes or futher info anywhere. Does anyone have any more info? Than...

this is a broken firmware. I have done a reset after update to get a clean install. But this firmware has hard connection drops in wireless lan, the GUI can be reached sporadically only and I can not set settings for NTP. How can netgear just bring such a laggy firmware for this expensive router?
I rolled back to 1.0.1.40

I find that my port forwarding entries disappears after a reboot. Traffic Meter also gets disabled after a reboot. TImezone and NTP gets reset.
For NTP, I change it to time.google.com instead of using the netgear default. It works.
I was wondering why I would lose internet access and blamed it on the ISP but now I know it's the router!
Literally, this is the worst Netgear product I've ever purchased.

I have only had one other Netgear router... ten years ago and it was so bad I gave it away lol... not sure why I decided to try Netgear again but here I am... I guess it works decent if you are type of person that just uses default settings. If want to change anything though it's very hit or miss.
