    I did.  Their respose was :  Please once downgrade the firmware to a step lower version.

     

    After that didn't work they recommended doig a factory reset, which I did and that doesn't change anything either.

     

    It did however show me two new problems:

     

    1) Setting the Automatically Adjust for Daylight Savings time check box sets the GMT to -3 from -4 when the timezone is set to (GMT -4) Atlantic Time.

     

    2) When the older firmware was installed, I went to Advanced->Adminstration->Router Update and selected

    Check for new version from the internet which resulted in: No new firmware version available.

     

    It also might be noted that IPV6 is much slower than IPV4, at least with Comcast Internet.

        Thanks, I would really like for a trouble ticket or some type of notification be issued to flag the problem that the WiFi scheduler does not work.
