RAX-48 Firmware Version V1.0.2.82_2.0.50
So I just updated the firmware to Firmware Version V1.0.2.82_2.0.50 and my address reservations are all scrambled. What are we supposed to do after a firmware update? is a Factory reset required? Do I have to re-enter everything?

Usually you don't have to do anything. If the firmware changes things enough to cause issues, then we usually recommend starting with a factory reset and new install (don't install a backup configuration)
I have 40 devices under Address Reservation. Does this mean I have to re-enter all of them? It looks to me like the device names got re-assigned to other IP's. I had to use this to get around DHCP not working. It kept giving out duplicate IP addresses to difference devices.
So I went in and started tryng to fix device names, and is seems at 30 it makes all device names blank. Either this firmware has bugs or mty router is defective. The IP/MAC addresses are OK. but I am not allowed to keep device names. The UI requires me to enter a device name and then blanks it out. I've tried different IP. Different MAC Address. It blanks all new ones over 30 out. Can someone at NETGEAR test this?
