My system was offline for a week, then came up on its own one night. A week later it went down again for a couple of days then came back to life. It been up for a while again but I have no illusions of it staying up the way my old network did. If this is the flagship, I can't imagine what the other devices are like now. ASUS used to be a great product -- not so much now. But, ASUS makes up for being very mediocre by also being quite expensive.
