    New .68 firmware is stable after 30 hours.
    Wireless broadcast performance has improved 5-8 dB. Other broadcasts closest to me are still using the same channels. Based on this survey, I made no changes. This was a pleasant surprise. Have an EX7000 downstairs connected to the 2.4 GHz network. It's also performing well. No complaints thus far.
