Attached Devices not showing after V2.1.1.12 firmware upgrade (RBR50)
I noticed that several people are complaining about the fact the Attached Devices are not longer showing after V2.1.1.12 firmware upgrade (RBR50). I have the same problem.
Does anybody were able to fix it, without having to downgrade the firmware?

No one has fixed it from what I have seen. knowledgable people say it's just a display issue and the satellites are still used, but if you depend on the list to be able to block certain devices from accessing the internet be aware that may not not work.
The issue is being addressed in the next fix which Amit address in the larger 2.1 thread but as aaz is saying it looks to be a bug in the GUI not showing the info.

- Thank you. Any update on this?
Orbi firmware version 2.1.1.16 has been release. The release notes say this version specifically addresses the problem of attached devices NOT being listed by the satellite web interface.
I installed 2.1.1.16. At first the satellite WAS showing attached devices, but after four hours of uptime, the list of attached devices being shown by the satellite web interface are gone again. To me, it looks like version 2.1.1.16 did NOT fix the problem.
Why can't we sort through attached devices by IP Address in ascending/descending order?
I had to downgrade from 2.1.1.16 to 2.1.1.12 due to a number of unrelated issues to the attached devices not showing. All of my devices were showing in 2.1.1.16 but they are not in 2.1.1.12 (even wired devices are not showing). Netgear is telling me that they don't want me to update my firmware until/unless I need to due to performance issues. I would very much like to see all of my devices. I will wait a few days to attempt to update the firmware to ensure I have a stable network as I recently spent 8+ hours getting it working.
I forgot to inlclude an answer to the person who was worried about support after the 90 days. It's not an issue, Netgear has extended support to Orbi users beyond the 90 days (I personally think it's due to the fact the bugs are not worked out of this product as I have spent at leat 5 days worth of hours getting this thing working over the past 5 months).
