Restoring config files to a different version of firmware can sometimes cause issues, especially where there is a difference in functionality between versions e.g. a new feature has been added. By all means use a config file, but since you are currently having unexpected issues I could not guarantee it will work, but it’s up to you if you want to try and save some setup effort.
If you do save a config file then I would suggest that before you try a newer version of firmware factory reset the EX6200, see if the basic problem still exists, and if not then restore the config file, and check for the issue again. After that, if all is well, then consider the firmware upgrade.
