This was a fresh install, I flashed based image, then flashed this to update. Didn't configure anything until I brought the image up to this one.
Do I still need to do that?
Thank you for your reply
Yes highly recommended to do after every install. It is probably not always necessary when there have been little changes between builds but it is difficult to know, so better safe then sorry.
On my production router I do it always, but I do not use every build on this router, on my test router I do it most of the times _________________ Routers:Netgear R7000, R6400v1, R6400v2, EA6900 (XvortexCFE), E2000, E1200v1, WRT54GS v1.
