Awesome, that was exactly what I needed. I performed the "downgrade" and the problem went away. Now hopefully Netgear will fix the problem and provide a new firmware update!
Much obliged!

That was the same issue I encountered as well, and the downgrade to the previous firmware version immediately resolved the issue. I haven't heard (or looked to see) if Netgear fixed this problem yet.
