Feedback for R7000 New firmware 1.0.9.18
Hi All,
Please post here for any update/issue related to the latest firmware 1.0.9.18.
You should review this and maybe revert back to this recommended version of FW:

Since I've flashed Tomato a few weeks ago I've forgotten that I have a router- it's working perfectly getting dust because i do not touch it at all :-)...
Parental control works perfectly, 0 drops, strong signal - save your time and do a similar thing!
Ok - turned off guest networks (2.4G and 5G) - been totally stable for 36 hrs now- so fingers crossed and certainly a lot better than previously
Still have all 2.4 and 5G devices connected whereas that hasn't been the case for several weeks
I have been struggling with this issue. Just to add another detail, Printing: I thought at first that I can no long print to my wifi printer(Canon) and my Brother laser attacted to the router. Nothing happen for 10 minutes but Finally both took off and printed. I have gone back to an older firmware and no chance. I am hoping that what one person in this discussion said they hope they didn’t damaged the router.
I am also thinking about Tomato. I’ve downloaded the Tomato and ready to install.
I will post to let you know how it worked out. It may be telling if I still have the same problem.
TimePilot, how is your wifi speeds?
I haven't tested them yet - but no complaints from the family - more concerned about the stability and dropouts/failed connects
V1.0.9.18.1.2.27
Just purchased this router and updated to the latest firmware. Most of my devices worked without issue but two did have a problem that I eventually solved.
Roku 2 device was getting code 003 ( unable to resolve dns ) problems, apps not working etc.
Motorola G5S Plus Android 7.1 WiFi OK but no outside internet no-connection.
I tried everything until I decided to go to security -> access-control and 'turn on access control' 'Allow all devices to connect' Even though I am not blocking any devices just enabling this got the above devices working. I'm not sure why the default setting of not enabling access control would stop the above two devices working.
