The problem is that the device comes with a version of the firmware installed. That firmware is what's used when a factory reset is done. So when a factory reset is done, it uses the devices initial firmware and not the active firmware. So once a factory reset is done, the only way to fix the now existing problem would be to installed a new firmware that fixes the problem. So you would have to connect to the WiFi, setup the device again, and sync the newest firmware.

Since Win 10AU is the cause of this, Win 10AU should be the fix of this. Why dd MS change things when they were working from XP to Win 10 November update?
