Just got this router aswell and i am sad to say it has been nothing but troubble.
Wifi disconnecting.
Admin interface is unresponsable after a few hours of uptime.
Web interface is slow.
Router needs to be rebooted at least twice every day.
This needs to be fixed asap, or i am returning my unit.. and leaving a bad review for the device, wich is sad, because its one of the nicer looking prosumer routers. I expected more for this pricepoint.

If memory serves, the wireless speeds are not as fast as the later firmware. But it is clear that the last two releases introduced a lot of bugs and were not tested comprehensively...

I finally had to downgrade to 1.0.1.40 from 1.0.1.56. Started to experience some of the bugs reported here with 1.0.1.56 after a week worth of uptime.
