If you are going backwards in release number you might still have them (that is from one of the older recalled beta's). However there is NO guarantee they will work. In cases like that you have to RESET the router and then re-apply manually your setting for proper operation.
If you are moving up from and older official release, like V1.0.4 or older you don't need to reset the router but it is advised. In this case I'd give it a try, have any problems, reset and re-enter is the first thing to try. DO NOT load saved settings from any other version into a new one. That seems to be asking for trouble these days.

It Seems the gui is slow that 5.4 series firmware. Its more sluggish nowadays than centria.
Hope it will get fixed next update.

Just adding to the long list of issues here in case someone is curious (or hasn't been stated already)...
I'm unable to disable the 5Ghz radio - oddly enough, if I choose the option to hide the SSID, it no longer appears, however with the combination of the two (or just the radio being off), the 5Ghz is still broadcasting its SSID - while you're unable to connect, it's an annoyance nonetheless. In testing this, the Arlo SSID would also randomly appear (at least it appears random), despite having Arlo disabled.
