Wndr4500v2- New firmware causing performance issues?

So, I applied the latest firwware update- V1.0.0.62_1.0.39 2 days ago and now my router is performing poorly. On a hard line it takes 20-30 secs to load the admin page. Has anyone else experienced this?

 

  • Did you perform a factory reset after applying the new firmware?

     

    That is the first thing to try if you have "post-flash" problems.

        Well done.

         

        Reset isn't always needed, but it is worth trying if something seems wonky.
