Hello,
I had the same with this last firmware (some devices won't connect).
I have also noticed that the list of the connected devices is completly false: some devices connected using ethernet will appear connected with wifi 6Ghz! Or connected wit 2,4 Ghz will appears connected with 5 Ghz? this bug is not so important but it was ok before.

Now, I'm back with the previous firmware and it's ok.
Thank you
