I got one last week Tuesday ... or the week before. I cannot remember.

Mine went in for repairs and I got a brand new one. So they might be out of stock again now.

Ok I feel like I have been cheated!!!!

Nope runs solid. Did have an issue last week that my internet went dead and had to do a reboot, but that was due to my wifi extender locking up on me only found out after 2 reboots and was not the zyxel problem . that what you get for buying a cheap wifi extender.

Mines too!
It does not give some devices an IP and those that do have then seem to lose connection with wifi after a while.

Trying to resolve this with Nology.

Hi chaps,

Also have this issue every now and again. It seems to be at random and I can't quite place what causes it. Please post the firmware link if you find it, don't want to brick the router :/

Thats awesome, I am glad ZyXel is making new firmware for you guys! :D

The hardware they are running seems pretty decent, just their firmware could do with a bit of improvement it would seem :)
