Apple TV dropping network with ORBI53

Same issue as others. Been the rounds with Netgear support trying to get the issue fixed - different channel numbers, checking if AppleTV is connected to the Satellite or Router, Beta firmware, etc. The latter worked briefly but the router/satellite auto-updated themselves to the latest firmware. Back to square one. An example of the pain I have had to go through... 

Rented a movie last night via Apple TV. Movied played.

4 mins - freeze - 30 sec later started playing again

15 mins - freeze - 10 sec later started playing again

16 mins - Apple TV message - "Cannot access iTunes Store". Followed by an "error occurred loading this content"

Checked my Macbook Pro. WiFi on laptop not working. "ORB100 cannot be joined"

WiFi restarted on laptop - working

Apple TV will not play movie

Restarted AppleTV

Movie played but high level of pixelation. Pixelation resolved itself after 5 mins

At this point checked TX rate on laptop - 39Mbps. Connected to 2.4ghz ch 13

Movie froze again at 22 mins

Waited 1 min - did not restart

Attempted to play on laptop and airplay to AppleTV. Would not play on laptop  

AppleTV restarted - movie played. But froze in 10 seconds of starting. Did not restart.

Laptop connected to ORB100 - TX rate 79Mbs.

Gave up. Started up  WiFi on old outer and connected AppleTV to old router. Movie played - no pixelation, no freezes. Old router connection at 78Mbs  at 2.4ghx ch 1

As other users have said - Netgear get your act together! You need to make sure your firmware works with Apple products (some of the most popular in the world) period!
