So it would seem that the plugins updates auto updated to broken unfinished plugins which made it so I was unable to login to my router gui and other things, my internet and wifi died and I had to do a 10 second reset to set back to factory, it would seem once a month plugins would auto update to broken plugins which made the router unusable.
Plugin auto updates need to be disabled until major breaking bugs have been fixed
This bug I would say is a major bug that needs to be seen to, I have to set the router configurations back.
I am fully aware of what beta is and I am happy to report any bugs needed to make this firmware stable for mainstream use.
I didn’t try to update any of them, I know it’s the plug in cos when I did update the plugins a month ago they did the exact same bugs it seems it auto updates them to the broken plugins
Timezone syn shall be online and you can use the “timezone syn with browser” button to set or set manually.
I test the recently beta without any issue.
I don’t know if this is of any relevance but I have not been able to do a manual update on v4_release3 firmware.

I experienced the same bug today took me nearly an hour to fix it I had to unplug all my cables but the lan port and do another hard reset, this bug needs fixing asap.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND USING THIS ROUTER FIRMWARE FOR DAILY USE PLEASE AVOID UNLESS YOU WANT TO HELP REPORT BUGS.
