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...
I see too many complaints with Netgear orbi system. As far as my experience, I am running router and two satellites system for more than 3 months without any issue. All units are auto updated to latest firmware. Reading all the complaints, it
I'm not experiencing problems other users are having with 2.1.2.18 firmware. My setup is simple though - one router (ground floor) + one satellite (1st floor), both not far from staircase. I do not need more satellites. Devices include smartphones, TV, laptop. There do not appear to be any problems when moving between router-satellite repeatedly and no high CPU usage.
Having problems with this and every release since the .74 release. I think those that aren't seeing the problem may not be noticing it because your uptime still remains the same so you actually have to see it.
My probably is my Satelite dropping it's connection, which means my hardwired devices losing connection temporarily throughout the day for about 20 seconds. I see it pop up on my screen on my computer or I dropped a phone call because of it. Be playing xbox and it will just drop the connection. None of this happened on .74 but every release since it has happened.
Can't believe Netgear won't let me stay on .74, always auto updates and nothing I can do to fix this issue on any of the new firmware.
If what you stated is true, wouldn't I be seeing a variance in my "WLAN Backhaul" uptime and my "WAN" (or system) uptime?
I'm not; they are identical and everything lines up perfectly.
