R7000 Firmware Version 1.0.11.130 - Just showed up Jan 6, 2022
The release notes say only: Fixes security vulnerabilities. Anyone tried this one? I am afraid... But, I always hope they fix some of the other ongoing stuff, like the Attached Devices list m...
Really surprising what works for one person doesn't work for all.
Maybe different router versions or series.
I have Access Control turned on. Have you tried that, it was a recommended fix for 128, but it didn't solve the problem for me.

As I mentioned above, '128 was UNstable for me when I installed it over '126 without a reset but resetting first left me with a stable '128.
Maybe that's what's needed with '130. Has anyone tried that?
- I will try to do the factory reset then install the "130"... I will update with the outcome.

I just noticed something strange in my R7000 logs that spontaneously started 2 days after I installed '130 without a factory reset. The WAN DHCP changed from occurring every 6 hours to now continuing to occur every 30 minutes (for the last 3 days). This shows on the log as an entry "[Internet connected] IP address: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX" followed by "[Time synchronized with NTP server]".
I also suspect WiFi dropouts during WiFi cell phone calls and dropouts with our hard-wired Ooma VOIP, so I'm ready to try a factory reset re-install of '130.
I have encountered two problems with this version.
1. After router is reset to default setting, I can get fast wifi and lan, but if I power it down then up again, wifi 5 gets really slow, unless I factory reset it again without powering it down.
2. Unable to set the 5G channel. The channel select just doesn't exist.
The worst part is, I cannot go back to previous firmware from UI.
Any suggestions?
