Is it just me or has AC and N mode somewhow being disabled after this upgrade to V2.1.2.18?
I get horrible throughput with speedtest.net from any orbi connected device. eg. 13Mb/s.

If I test from the orbi itself I get the expected 115Mb/s.

AC is working fine for me on V2.1.2.18.
One thing to check: make sure you have WMM still enabled in Advanced WiFi settings. Disabling WMM will automatically disable support for AC/N modes.- LHZJan 21, 2018Guidethx for quick reply - that was indeed the case. enabled WMM and back to AC/N. weird that it was working for me before.
