I have an RBR50 on firmware 1.12.0.18 and it's been a nightmare the past few days. Wired connection has no issues, but all wireless devices will suddenly lose internet access on a daily basis. Each time, a full reboot of the router is required to reestablish any wireless access to the internet.
The most recent crash wouldn't even allow me to connect to the router wirelessly to reset it. I had to have a wired connection to login to the router.
Hello ibdb
I sent you a PM.

The last two versions of firmware have been a nightmare.. Rolling back hasn't helped as it auto updates the next day for me. I'm on the RB50, is there any beta firmware available? Wireless devices like the Galaxy S8s in the house go to no internet while connected, very often. Like, every few minutes. Using the guest network has made them stay connected more often but it's slower and still disconnects.
My wife has told me we need to return it and get something that 'works'. -That's going to bum me out.
