I think you missed the point. It was working fine pre-1.11.0.20. And it works fine on other APs. But on Orbi w version 1.11.0.20+, it no longer works.

Yes, as as of this writing it appears to be working better. Drops have been elilminated, but ping times are still ridiculous (avg 24ms, peak 1000ms).
That said, the issue remains that v1.11.1.20 & v1.12.0.8 broke connectivity with a relatively new device.
