So yea, after months of stability with 1.10, I decided to upgrade to the latest and greatest (rofl) to take advantage of the new sharepoint features. Horrible mistake. Not only did this reduce my wireless N transfer speeds by a factor of 20 (10.7Mb/s -> 500kb/s), but the router reboots every minute or so. I only get about 10 seconds of internet because the other 50 seconds are taken up by that worthless internet speed test.
What can I do about this? Here's what I did:
1. had 1.10 firmware, saved configs
2. downloaded and flashed to 1.32NA firmware
3. loaded my saved config
4. Had problems, came to forums
5. downloaded and installed 1.32NA beta04 firmware
6. reset to factory default settings
7. This is where I am now and my problems are even worse than before my upgrade to the beta.
Does Dlink not test their firmware in house before they publicly release it? If I can't fix this within the next 2-3 hours, I'm going to go buy a different wireless n router. Our house simply cannot be without a stable connection.

After resetting to factory defaults, I'd re-flash 1.32NA (not beta), then change settings manually rather than trying to restored saved ones.

I just went and bought a new DIR655 /w firmware 1.21, and returned my original DIR655. Now it's someone else's problem.
