Gee! Good thing we can downgrade, connections seem stable again, will test some more...
HTH can Netgear give out faulty firmware?

yes, downgrading is the solution.

Had exactly the same problems and also resolved them by reverting to the previous firmware version.
There have been a number of threads on this issue, most of which have been marked as solved and closed to further posts, but when you look at the 'solution', it is always reverting to previous firmware version. This is NOT a solution, merely a temporary workaround.
Isn't it about time Netgear acknowledge that there is clearly a problem and actually do something about providing a real solution?
But I guess marking all the threads as solved improves their stats..........
