Update: Got a reply from support. They now know about the problem from other users as well.  
The think it is about 5 GHz WiFi and that the new firmware doesnt work well with it.  
Unfortunately it doesnt explain why it crashed, why no scenes are running and why I´m not able to access the setup mode.  
So, there is much more than just the WiFi issue.
