yeah, if you note the previous one, it took them almost a year to release 2.03, and there have been so many complaints about it.
I had to run the 2.02 beta because their previous firmware had SIP and xbox wireless problems that affected me. and with that known, it still took them almost a year to release 2.03, which apparently fixed those but made other things worse...so I'm still running beta.
but this is not the first one I've had... I had one of their early mimo routers as well, and same thing, they dropped support for that as quick as they could, and never offered any more firmware updates.
I stupidly bought this one because I too found it on sale, and figured since it was one of their higher end units they might support it better and longer.
I'll tell you what, as long as they're taking to release firmware updates, everyone better pray they don't release a new version, cause as soon as that comes out, don't expect any more firmware updates to fix bugs.
that seems to be their more likely fix...just leave one unit behind with all it's reported problems, and start selling a new POS.
Hopefully 2.02 will hold out ok, as it's been fairly stable for me, and the current bugs don't affect me as much.
at some point, I thing the dd-wrt will stableize and I'll move to that.
and next time hopefully I'll know better...I think I'm going to try netgear, since at least I have several of their switches that have been rock solid, and hoping despite the issues with even their routers, they'll stand behind them better...
if you're reading this and you've not bought...move along...find something else...find a route that get's firmware updates more often then every 9-12 months, has an active forum where the companies look for and address issues, and just in case, has dd-wrt support.
