Pulled the USB version from Ford as I've had my auto-update/wifi turned off to prevent any of the messed up updates after I rolled back, did a master reset ... just to start with a clean slate ... and the update went well. Did another Master Reset after finishing .... just to clean out any bits and pieces of 21020/21098 and all is well. Spent a few minutes re-registering with Ford Pass, setting Sirius favorites, etc., and I even decided to re-energize the wifi/OTA capability, gambler that I am!! Seems to have solved a lot of issues folks have been having, but specifically the TravelLink mess appears to have been resolved. Several trips today and not one single problem.
About time....
