Thank you.
- chaosminionxFeb 06, 2023AspirantYou literally have v1 users reporting the beta solved their issues with instability and uptime/availability.
The firmware has been issued to v1 users. V1 and v2 have virtually nothing different about them besides a stepping change on the underlying processor.
How were v1 users able to get the RC firmware if it's only for V2?- FURRYe38Feb 06, 2023Guru
Only v2 users had reported seeing this issue. No v1s had been reported since this thread first started.
There was a initial test beta that same out about a year go that didn't work. This 2nd test beta came out last last year.
Why we are checking and conforming router serial numbers. Again, this patch is only for v2 since v1 hadn't been seeing this issue. There would be no need for v1 users.
