I know a fix is in the works (hopefully soon). I use the DGL 4500 at work for video applications. I chose this router because it worked well for me at home. I upgraded the firmware at home but luckily did not upgrade the ones at work.
My concern going forward is the inability to roll back the firmware. I don't think any of us who blindly updated the firmware to 121NA will ever do that again! There has to ALWAYS be a roll back path if this router or any other router can be considered for critical applications.
That being said, I haven't seen an explanation why there is no roll back capability and no details on what would happen if we tried.
Can I roll back to 1.20 or not?
Ru-Fi-Oh, I know you are busy trying to fix the problem. But could you please keep us informed on a daily basis. I'm in the software business, and I know it can be hard to find problems but there is no reason to go dark on us. We may even be able to help.
Good luck in finding the problem
Thanks
You can roll back to 1.20 but cannot roll back to anything else. If you do roll back i would just build the configuration file from the start instead of loading a saved one which can sometimes cause problems when firmware versions are changed. Also before you roll back try the following:
-DNS Relay Disabled (Unchecked)
-Advanced DNS Service (Disabled/Unchecked)
-Disable WISH
-No GameFuel rules, but can be active
-N/G Network 2.4 GHz/ WPA2-AES
By doing the above it may make the router stable and stop the lockup problems tell the new firmware comes out. I agree that you should be able to roll back to anything but in this case you can't. As for what will happen if you did i have no idea but i don't think it would be good.
