I'm running v2.0.5. I tried v2.0.6 but it kept crashing on my apollo. Have you tried reverting back to v2.0.5 and if so, is that network issue stable on the old version? I would think it's a problem with the network adapter, initially. My node and miner are running happy on the old version right now. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I'd love to upgrade, but it should be easy. THe download and reboot crashed on me. flashing a new microsd got the system to boot but then crash.
Plus I hate that when you flash a new microsd, it does not remember your address and you are forced to go through that at the initial startup. Is there a way to skip the startup page so settings could be loaded from a backup?
I upgraded my Apollo 1 a month ago to 2.0.6 and not a single issue. I am also running an Apollo 2 standard off of my Apollo 1. Constant 63/64 connections. It's in my office so it is running in eco mode. I use an ethernet cable.
Wanted to add that I have upgraded my Apollo 1 and Apollo 2 units to version 2.0.6 with zero issues as well. They have been running well in all modes with not a single hiccup.
The only issue I have had since the upgrade is with my original Apollo 1 units running on wifi (my Apollo 2 units are hardwired to the network). I have very strong, fast, and reliable wifi (tested) but wanted to continue using the unit in my "back hall/mud room" where I have no Ethernet cable access. What I did to solve the issue was to set-up an "old but still good" wireless router as a wifi relay in the mud room and connected the Apollo to it with a short Ethernet cable. Zero issues since leading me to believe the new software has issues with wifi???...
To the individual with troubles getting the node synced: There are many good tips in this thread regarding start-up and getting the node synced. Again, I had no issues with this but followed others advice and had the Apollo 2 wired to my network and NOT mining with it during the block chain download. Lastly, an odd all suggestion but be sure your modem and router are not set-up to auto restart during the download as this may create a minor hiccup. Mine reboot once a week as a security measure.
