Hi Stanislaw,

I had my colleague run some tests as he has the device, but he is an 
ocean away. So he could get the new firmware running with nvram file. 
For the old firmware the device could boot without nvram, but the scan 
results were showing that the device was not operating optimally. Could 
you try the new firmware with the attached sample nvram file and let me 
know if that works for you?

Regards,
Arend
