this version is less stable for me than the previous 22525

[ahfoo]

I am not very sure how your system work less stable in this version. But it work well as it supposed to be and so far I am having negative or unusual behavior thus far. 

[Indigian]

Its same as previous fw's in that it loses Internet every couple of days.

Gone back to beta 321 and stable as anything

definitely this version

crashed multiple times within less than 24hrs

trying Merlins 388_2

[ahfoo]

Any log that appear having strange behavior? 

[Indigian]

Didn't have time to check tbh and I also flashed over 22525 so will need to do a clean slate install/flash before I condemn 23285.

[ahfoo]

My usual practice for firmware update always perform a Hard reset after the update and re do the router setting. This may be an old school method, but it always work well as it is. Hope this can help you.

[MeAsus]

When you say, "re do the router setting" after hard reset, do you mean manually or can you load the backup file?

I'm having issues with the latest FW version as others stated.  The only stable one is 3.0.0.4.386.49599.

[Indigian]

ye manually as you never know what you may be bringing over with a backup.
