I personally have not had that problem since the last firmware update in July (where they indicated they fixed it). SJ
What they did in July (search for firmware differences in 7.2.22, I think) was to "patch" the control panel firmware to change the order/set of requests sent to the extender to prevent the problem.
This "patch" resulted in different behavior and broke some 232 scripts. I documented this in the thread I suggest searching for.
During the Beta cycle, I was told that they'd finally found the underlying cause, in the extender f/w, and fixed it.
I also inquired as to whether or not they were going to back out the "patch" from the control panel firmware and never got an official response. I suspect that latest firmware still has the "patch".
A good way to test would be to use the 6.0.7??? cp f/w with the latest extender firmware to see if problem has truly been corrected. As I have seen the ramping problem only 1 time, I am not a good tester for this. :-)
