So I received an email from Netgear a few days ago recommending upgrading to v1.0.1.78 for security reasons. I did and had the same pain as a lot of you, networ was toast. After a few days of agony and "encouraging" messages from my family, I found this thread and downgraded to the previous firmware. Network is running fine again. Netgear, you could do better.

Hi All,
A quick update for everyone regarding the trial firmware.
I have been working with Netgear trialling new versions of the firmware, whilst running debug logging, and have experienced and reported a number of problems, although nothing like as many as in the original V1.0.1.78 version.
The good news is that I'm now on my 3rd trial version and although the latest has only been deployed for 2 days, I have yet to experience any disconnection or dropout problems with it.........fingers crossed :smileyhappy:

Do. we're on EX7000 V1.0.1.78_1.0.159_test here (there was some delay deploying as this is a customer site) in AP mode - I'd rather prefer not commenting this in the public. Provided feedback on the support ticket and to Christian_R these hours, awaiting more feedback (or yet another test build...)
