I have an issue, I have two switches attached to the router. A gigabit (Netgear ) and a 2.5 with 2 10gbs port (Qnap) The link speed between the Nexgear x10 router and the switch drops speed from 1000mps to 100mbps. Reverting back to V1.0.4.67HF rectifies the issue. I have tried three times with the same result every time.

Does the link speed connection drop for both switches or for just one? If just one, specifically which one?
 
Working great so far, I'm looking forward to the next build!

Any ETA on the next one?
