@Kevin_Z Hello, why does the Tether app crash as soon as I select the LED loop graphic effect on the GE800? In the sense that as soon as I select to disable the LEDs, I have to do it from the browser and it no longer allows me to do it from the app... otherwise the application will crash. I have no idea what could trigger this anomaly. Do you know if there are already cases like this?

Hi @Forzic,
I did encounter syncing issue with the router when using the tether app. For example, I would turn on a feature and on the router page it would be off (or vice versa).
I think it should be look at why it does not sync correctly.
This is the reason i deleted the tether app to avoid problems.

@Ashleey I change the effects with a physical button on the router because even if updated tether gives me problems by crashing only and exclusively by enabling LEDs from it and especially loop so at the moment unusable because every time I open it again it freezes and restarts by itself!!
