Enabling Downstream QoS crashes router
I have just finished doing a factory reset along with a firmware update to V1.0.4.122_10.0.95. I have been working through reconfiguration and the router is routinely crashing after applying changes...

This installation followed a factory reset. I don't care to go through that again and shouldn't have to.
Quite right. Installing on a clean router shouldn't mess around with the it.
One last desperate thing to try could be to reflash the fresh firmware. There have been rare cases of new firmware not quite crossing the finishing line. Nothing lost by trying it. No need to reset.

I gave it a shot, reflashing the router with a download of the same firmware (1.0.4.122, no factory reset). It didn't solve the problem.
I also tried enabling QoS both while connected to the router with a wired and a wireless connection and via 192.168.1.1 and routerlogin. All failed with the "... didn’t send any data" message followed by being unable to continue with router configuration and unable log back in to it until it had been rebooted.
