Hello mikerpalmer ,
Which orbi model are you using, Is it RBR40 or RBR50 ?
Are you getting disconnection and speed issue on all devices ?
For RBR50 I GUESS THERE IS A BETA FIRMWARE NOT SURE ABOUT RBR40 . YOU CAN REACH OUT THE ORBI TECH SUPPORT @ 888NETGEAR .

It's the RBR50. I am noticing my iPad will drop wifi and then reconnect after about 30 seconds. I have a nest cam which disconnects every so often. Also, noticed my MacBook was connected to wifi but could not reach anything on my network (pings failed) until I turned wifi off/on on my MacBook.
