   1. Hii Tejas,
      If you have bought in Feb then yu must have latest firmware I guess. But still if you think its not working properly, then tell service center guy to flash & update firmware. As you are in warranty period you can get it done free.

      Or you can do it by yourself. And try to install proper firmware before doing it.

      Suggestion: Try to do Wi fi connection settings & other things once again & ensure that you are not making any mistake in it. Because I never heard anybody complaining about bugs in Star Wi FI.
