Do a factory reset on the router. Either from the routers web page or the back button.
Check to see after the reset if your devices sees the default NG SSID names listed. Should see two. If so, go in and set up new SSIDs and give new PWs.
Ensure that each radio is enabled as well under Advanced/Advanced settings/Wireless settings.
Ugrading to v1.0.3 is a major version change. There may have been some changes that didn't take effect until a full reset was done. Something probably got hung up.
I recommend doing a factory reset after upgrade to a major FW version. Then set up from scratch. Then save off a new configuration to file for this version for back up if you need. Normally you should be able to do a FW update with out having to reset, however seems to be in this case, you needed one.
Great!
