Just wondering if there is any good feedback regrading the Orbi, there must be some happy reports from long time users?. Any feedback with downgrading the firmware?

Mines been rock solid since I got it about a year ago. I've been through all of the firmware upgrades with no issues. Currently running 2.1.2.18 with 2 satellites. Not using ethernet backhaul nor Daisy-Chain

I agree. Bought mine Black Friday sale via Costco so have their typical "virtually unlimited" return policy (did you guys/gals see the person return a LIVE Christmas tree after New Years becase it was dead!).
A little initial problem related to Google Play Services issue but updated to Beta and that went away. RBK53 - 1 Router, 2 Satellites, 2500sqft house across 3 levels. Coverage from Sidewalk through entire backyard. 5G backhaul, not daisychained. Have uPnP off. Still running the true "newest" firmware since have never had issues. Best router system I've ever owned.
