Version 4 Firmwares are BROKEN

Ever since the 4.x series came out I have had non-stop hung TCP connections, across every device LAN and WAN, and it's been driving me crazy (it is definitely the RBR850, bypassing it and everything is fine).  The nail hit the head today when I couldn't even do a basic container image pull from quay.io without less than 4 retries. Ironically it even took 3 attempts to download the 3.x firmware, which works great. Why oh why do you guys force updates? I now have to fight it and constantly downgrade it. I really need stability, so will be forced to switch vendors over this.
