New - RAX200 Firmware version 1.0.10.140_1.0.79 Released
Currently stuck on 1.0.5.132 due to the DNS bug with OpenVPN, but seeing 1.0.10.140_1.0.79 offered, and I can't find any user feedback on it. Release notes before updating show:

#7 looks like it finally addresses the DNS issue, so I'll try updating to it after backing up my settings again.

I'd make a backup in case you do want to downgrade. Then you could downgrade, factory reset, and reinstall your backup and be back where you started if it didn't work well for you.
