Well done. Always nice when the simplest option works.
Thanks so much again! I am curious why v.128 is called HOT FIX.
Apparently these were high priority items:
New Features:
- Support Speedtest server selection in web GUI.
- Support Unicode character for attached device name and router name.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixes the issue where USB stick can remove even files still in transmission.
- Fixes the issue where FW cannot restore by old configuration.

- This firmware addresses security vulnerabilities. For more information about security vulnerabilities, visit https://www.netgear.com/about/security
Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
