This morning there is new Pro router firmware r3.8.24-R-1531355-PROD-1 and it starts by saying use HTTPS which is then says is not available. It then requires the admin password to get into any level of access. Now testing out what it does.

It allows you to set your own DNS servers in DHCP.

It still does not let you lock the 2.4G WiFi to a channel, it keeps reverting to Channel 11

@tnj If you try to force it back manually, will it not take and apply your preferred selection that you want? Good spot with the Samsung making it jump back to channel 11!

If I set any of the fixed channels sometimes it totally ignores the setting and reverts on save and at other times it takes the setting but then a few minutes later it just changes it back to whatever it wants which is usually channel 11. It behaves like it is in Smart Mode whatever you try and set it to be. The only way I have got it to stay off channel 11 is to put another WiFi system next to it fixed to channel 11 then it chooses channel 1 or 6 and changes between them. However the other WiFi system causes interference.

@tnj Does sound like it is being overridden and reverting to smart instead off the manual fixed channel! The Plus did seem to work ok but not much around me to force it to jump, so once it was set it did stay rock solid even through it's FW updates, was one off the oops on the list for Plus with all the others, so did check as FW was thrown out!

I wonder if EE has suspended the rollout, as still not received it yet.

Me neither! Is it just the 1.6GB connections that received the update?

Not recieved the update either yet, and on the 1.6gb Made for Gamers Bundle though my service only went live on Friday.

Perhaps the firmware update is in stages

@Verk @psychobudgie @mikefairgrieve @Colesey It may just be that @tnj was targeted for a FW update to his specific Pro router as having the particular Many IOT devices for connection and the Router falling over.

@JimM11  @psychobudgie has been upgraded as posted in this thread so its not targeted. Just have to wait on EE to see if they have halted it due to the Apple issue or just a very slow rollout,
