Android devices keep getting thrown off the Orbi WiFi

Any progress? Happens constantly now and am ready to return if there's no fix coming. Others with S7's reporting same problems.
I have an S7 Edge and a Galaxy Tab S2.
No problems with either on two different Orbi systems.
The S7 now runs Android 7 but had no problems with Android 6 either.
For now I have beam forming and mimo set off, but worked just as well with them set on.
I also have 2.4ghz running at full power, some suggested reducing this could help with the issue.
So it seems that it's not a problem with every installation but a could be a combination of things in certain installations that cause the problem.
Mine had issues with the S7 Edge and LG V20, and iPhones. After many things I gave up, and returned it.
Has anybody checked if this issue is resolved with the new firmware released yesterday?
