RBK13 Firmware update problems

Anyone else seeing any issues with Firmware Version 2.6.2.104 on RBS10 and RBR10?
My RBK13 (AP mode) setup would stop working - no wifi connectivity - about once a day after upgrading to this version. Switch it off and on again and all good till the next time.
Reverted back to 2.6.1.44 and all looks solid again.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: RBK13 Firmware update problems
Try a factory reset and setup from scratch next time FW is updated...

Re: RBK13 Firmware update problems
Not as yet.
Wanted to just validate that the issue was the fw and not something else(hw?) as it dod seem to be random.
Looks to be the case as everything has been solid again since I reverted to the old fw version.
Will try and find time to do the factory reset - though why it should be needed is another matter.
I take it I'm the only one seeing this issue? Is it because I am running in AP mode?

The factory default and then update seems to have resulted in a solid network once more.

Re: RBK13 Firmware update problems
Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
