Is there anyway to trigger the update?
I've heard the new update can greatly speed up the modem but don't know if that's true.
Reboot or Factory Reset may work. Mine updated over night and now there is packet loss. I have no 5G so B66 is the only band I'm connected to but never have experienced packet loss till this update.
@rangerrick337 : In your browser go to 192.168.12.1 to login to the modem/router. See if the System|Upgrade button will take you from 1.2003.03.0143 to 1.2003.03.0168
We’ve had ours since late Feb. It’s on 1.2003.03.0168, but I can’t remember if I did the manual update or if it happened after a reboot.
@wildchld : What utility are you using that shows jitter and packet loss?
I started getting the packet loss when I got .0178 never was on .0168.
That’s a Speedtest from inside my Asus router…
