Hello All, 

For users still experiencing dropped connection issues with the latest EX7000 FW, please send me a PM as we have received a trial firmware from engineering that may resolve your issue.

had to revert back to previous version. This new one seems to cause this device to freeze an no longer respond after a few weeks. I have to manually power cycle it to get it back to life. I wasn't even using the MESH feature as that just caused all my wireless devices to lose their connection while roaming around the house.

It appears that the newly-released V1.0.1.80 fixes the problem!

Hi,

I have version 1.0.1.82_1.0.146 installed for a while now, and the EX7000 has not been hung up again.
Cross our fingers

Where did you get 1.0.1.82_1.0.146 from. It's not available for download? Firmware 1.0.1.82 doesn't work for me in extender mode. It's unstable with frequent dropouts.

Hi,

I use it as ap + switch so in repeated mode I don't know how it will work.
It's a beta version.

Sorry I meant 1.0.1.80 is not working for me in extender mode but 1.0.1.82 seems to work great.
