We are looking for a stable router, and were considering to buy 9 of these routers, but it seems from all the reviews we have read, there are hundreds of thousands of complaints online about the various problems with this router.
Every complaint I've read is problems/issues with firmware, the device locking up, and internet connectivity slowing to a crawl, and pages not loading (not even the control panel).
Other issues are "NAT Loopback" missing, and no support for large file formats (over 4GB) such as NTFS.
These are all major "issues" that are preventing us from purchasing this product, but we do need 9 new routers, we want gigabit, and we want a very stable router. From all the complaints we have been reading, have these "issues" been addressed or fixed yet?
Is there any new firmware releases that have fixed all these issues/problems yet? Is it a heat problem? Are these routers defective (by design) due to heat problems? Is it just software/firmware problems? Are there hardware problems?
Does the "activity light" blink based on activity now, or is it just random blinking? I've read a lot of bad reviews on this device, and we wanted to buy 9 of them, but I'm trying to find out if all these issues have been addressed/fixed yet?
