Well I guess they mean the new one - V1.0.9.42_10.2.44
Saw the post and did a speed test on the 2.4GHz and could only get 40Mbps a couple of metres away from the router, updated and repeated test and it was around 110Mbps. I've now re-enabled the 5GHz radio which I'd disabled as it was hopeless - speed test is giving me 217Mbps (wired is around 220Mbps download) so hopefully it's sorted now.
As long as I'm getting decent wireless speeds now I'll be very careful about routinely updating to the latest firmware again - I was ready to reolace this router with an alternative to solve the issue.
