R8000 Firmware Update R8000-V1.0.3.36_1.1.25 breaks genie app, local and remote management

Upgrade to V1.0.3.36_1.1.25 has left me not being able to remotely or locally manage router using the genie app. I have also noticed the router being very sluggish with connectivity since the upgrade last night. Resetting does not resolve the issues.
  • Do I need the previous fw to roll that back? If so where can I get it? Thanks!

  • if you revert it back to the old firmware v1.0.3.4 will it work properly?

      I rolled it back to V1.0.3.32_1.1.21 bits and everything back to normal, this current relase should be pulled to fix the issues then released again.

        MrZen Which Genie app are you using (iOS or Android) and also what version?

        I was able to access mine using the latest firmware (1.0.3.36) on the router.

      Did it work after updating the firmware once again?
