Access revoked
I have an RBR50 with Device Access control Enabled. What causes a device that has been enabled to become disabled. This always seems to happen at Random times for unknown reasons. Today it happened on my main admin machine. Is there a way to enabel a device so that it won't become disabled unless I revoke it's access. Please advise. Running firmware 2.2.1.210

Try a Manual FW load:

I tried updating that when this problem started. I use access control for the devices allowed on the network. Even though they have been enabled, they seem to have the access revoked at random times for random reasons. For example, last night one laptop on my network was locked out and as I was re-enabling the device from the router admin, the router revoked access to my admin machine. I had just hit enable the device so I was past the pwd etc. on the router set up software when it revoked. I hope this added detail helps.
Seems that others have reported this as well. Something NG support should be made aware of if not already.
