Hey Everyone,
 

We've received feedback from community members that their routers, such as Archer BE600 / 9500 / 9700 (V1) and BE550 Pro (V2), are prone to random automatic reboots after updating to firmware 1.1.1 Build 20260113 rel. 13713 and enabling the SMB sharing function, and once the USB hard drive is disconnected or SMB sharing is disabled, router stability returns.

Our R&D department has identified the cause of this unexpected behavior and released a firmware update to correct it. If your router also exhibits this behavior, please try downloading the firmware manually from the link below.
