I tried 3.0.0.4.388_22525 for a week or so (clean install) plus several reboots but have now gone back to 3.0.0.4.386_49873. I was getting a number of devices on 2.4Ghz (both Wemo switches and Raspberry Pis) that were periodically inaccessible (a restart of the individual device fixed the issues) plus substantial variation in ping times and (some) packet loss which was not there before to devices with good RF signal.  This is using the same 2.4Ghz channel (11) on both releases.  I also saw on two occasions that after a software reboot of the router node the connection to the cable modem did not go in service (LED stayed red).  A power-cycle of the router node fixed the issue, but another restart got me back to the same point (red LED, needing a power-cycle).

Reverting back to 3.0.0.4.386_49873 resolves all of these issues.  I typically manually restart this configuration about once a month (just because) however it has been entirely stable for me.  (Note: I use Ethernet backhaul, external DHCP/DNS Servers and do not use any of the Parental Control, AIProtection (or similar) features.

I have a router + 2 mesh node system with approx 120 total devices with about 80 of those wireless.
