review.reviewBody=<p>Initial review as of 2019-06-09: after a possible initial crash the Vigor seems to have been stable and reliable and maintaining a good connection for a few weeks now, and feels solidly consistent.  This has not yet been tested for stability in hot weather, nor will I get a chance to play with its IPv6 or advanced routing features any time soon.</p><p>2020-08-08: even with two firmware upgrades, now at <a href="#Upgrade2">3.9.1.3_BT</a>, the device is unstable in a number of regards, eg 5GHz WiFi just going away, and generally gettng more cranky over time and needing a monthly power cycling.  Also one of our older laptops, running Windows 10, gets thrown off the 2.3GHz WiFi as much as several times per day.  Disappointing for quite an up-market device, and with few obvious alternatives to handle the static allocation that I have.</p>
review.positiveNotes=supports static public address block
review.negativeNotes=flaky, needs daily auto-reboot to be reliable enough
review.negativeNotes=5G WiFi is particularly prone to stop working
