Thanks for your patience.
A firmware update (NTG9X50C_10.16.04.04) was recently released.
We try to release updates only when there's been a significant amount of changes. It's not much fun installing very regular updates that usually have no changes relevant to you so we prefer fewer more meaningful updates.
If you're still having issues give this update a try and let us know how you find it.- PerthPhilAug 13, 2017Tutor
Won't help me. I took mine back and got a refund after repeated efforts to diagnose the ethernet problem.
I am surprised you haven't pulled this firmware release as well after all the problems not recognising Telstra SIMs in them...
Upgrader beware I guess...

That incorrect display appears to be a browser caching issue. My Dashboard wasn't displaying properly and yet after clearing the cache it then displayed fine.
