Also, will Arlo be in the final version and off by default?
Thank you.

Jan 14, 2016I'm having the same issue so I downgraded to previous firmware and everything is fine....Should I do a factory reset and try new firmware? There seems to be a issue with mobile devices connecting to the newest firmware release.

I wouldn't upgrade if you are happy with your routers performance. Any time you change firmware you should reset, flash and reset again. Each reset with the reset button on the back pressed for at least 10 seconds until the lights flash. Also make sure you enter your configuration by hand and not from a backup file.
