On one, we were able to fix it simply by correcting the data in the
corrupted configuration profiles.
The other required reformating the flash rom, re-installing the comOS
and then a manual reconfiguration of the router, for if we reloaded
the saved configuration we would once again have the same problem.
All four routers are working great and for my dedicated 28.8k
customers I'm seen connection times longer than I've ever seen.
We upgraded from 3.3.1
