I have a Ex7000 that is dropping out all of the time as well. Can I be invited to try the latest beta firmware?

    I only just discovered this thread in time as was just about to take my iMac to an Applestore having tried everything else to work out why I keep getting dropped connections every 10 minutes or so.  I remembered that installed an update for the first time in four years on my EX7000 after getting an email from Netgear a couple of months ago and realised that the problems had started after that.  I decided to just try a factory reset and it has completely sorted the problem out.
