Announcing availability of OrbiOS 2.1
I posted this on a different thread, but copy & pasting it here for more visibility. Let me give you a quick update on where NETGEAR is with the OrbiOS. Just before Christmas break, we paus...
Hello
Since the update to latest FW, my speed has dropped dramatically.
Something weird is happening, one of the satellites (the one downstairs) says "Connection type: wired" instead of 5G like the other, that is not possible...I use star topology (daisy chain off) via wifi (the router is in mid level and satellites-2 units-are based downstairs and upstairs). I also notice that the IP of that satellite is changing quite a lot.
Any help?
I tried to factory reset the problematic satellite but notings works...
Thanks
Hello pablofuente
Did you make sure that the satellite is on the exact same firmware version as the main router? also have you tried to enable beamforming and MUMIMO

- I did check firmware, yes exact same version. Both features (beam forming and Mimo) are enabled.
What else should I try??- Is there a new Beta on available? This router was incredible for the first 4 months and now it is ABSOLUTE JUNK! Constant drops to internet. At least 20 times per day across all devices.
