Just got it in the mail, updated to v1.0.7.2. Update went smooth and after doing it i factory reset with the GUI and then once again with the button since I heard its best to factory reset after a firmware update on this router. Weird thing is i wont be using the router until i get my new fiber connection in a month or 2. Don't even wanna waste my time using this on my DSL. lol
