Access Control on RBR50 with V2.5.0.38 firmware
Since that last firmware upgrade the systems Access Control is all a mess. It even managed to Block one of my Satellites so I ended up having to turn off Access Control. Also I fear that if I reboot the system it will start randomly blocking things again.

Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last update? I believe someone posted about this not too long ago with similar issues with access controls. I believe it was resolved with a reset of the RBR.
Thanks for the fast reply, No I have not tried a factory reset of the router yet... I did see that mentioned on a search but wanted to post here before I did that to see if that was the only solution.

Seen odd issues with this FW update. Resets seems to help fix most of them.

STOP....V2.5.0.38 has known issues. Your best bet is to revert to an earlier version and STOP performing mmanual updates to your firmware.
