Thanks for the good summary. I'm on '123 and have lived with with work-arounds for Bugs 1,3 & 4 for the last couple versions. I don't use USB devices in it, so Bug 2 shouldn't be an issue - I'll avoid clicking on it.
I may try '126 for the security improvements, however my bad experiences in the past with R7000 updates make me nervous.
I'm curious if you simply applied the '126 update over '123 or if you went through the painful procedure of erase, update & manually re-enter all your config info (this was what I had to do to recover from several bad previous R7000 updates).
I was surprised to see the "update available" alert on the config page. There have not been any update alerts for a good while.
I just added a Netgear WAC104 wireless access point at the far end of my house and I was just now celebrating getting it all working solid, when this alert popped up throwing cold water on my celebration by reminding me of bad past R7000 experiences.
