I had a problem where whenever I went in to change a connected device setting, for example, device priority or name, and clicked the Apply button, the admin page timed out, and i couldn't login again until I had restarted the router. Any changes I had made were lost. I have about 32 devices connected.
I hoped downloading this version of the firmware would fix the issue, but it doesn't.
I have no problem editing any of the other pages, DHCP Ip address reservation, or Dynamic QoS (which I have now turned off).
