Defect: OrbiOS 2.1.1.12 Attached Devices Widget & Page
In 2.1.12, the Attached Devices widget on the intitial page and the actual Attached Devices page do not populate even though devices and satellites are connected. Factory reset was performed mult...
OP here:
I purchased an Eero yesterday (3 unit 2nd gen and 1 beacon) and received it around 6 PM. It was set up and has now run 16 hours without a single disconnect among 62 continually connected devices, or disconnects from another 30 devices that connect periodically as measured by a Fingbox, not anecdotal observation.
Other than having to enter about 30 port forwarding rules via an app versus a web interface, the setup was brainless and provides great feedback on node placement signal strength!
My RBK50 system with a router and 2 sats is packed in its boxes and on Craigslist. So glad to finally have stable wifi thanks to Eero!!
thanks.
I just monitored for 5 minutes and my CPU load is kept above 90% while hardly 1 or 2 devices are online.

Yep, the entire wireless part of the router resets about every hour... SSID's disappear and it cycles. I can see it occur on a WIFI monitoring app I run on a distant Surface Pro 3 I use as a photo frame.
Something is borked. and it overheats, and then restarts the wireless.
Mine finally populated after serveral hours, however if I reset it goes blank for a long while. I'm also having an issue where the router isnt allowing more than 50 meg speed, however there have bee no disconnects. I'm wondering if the cpu is being crushed somehow. Cpu appears to be at 70 percent for the router (however its a snapshot maybe and load is partly bringing up the debug.htm website?)

A good theory, but that page didn't cause it to do that previously.
Exactly same behavior here.
Any suspicion on Disney Circle functionality. Disney circle was able to see and list all the devices while Orbi router was showing 0 devices connected to both Web and App.
Guys at Netgear. Pls. try to fix this problem ASAP. The overheating may cause damage to ORBI router.
Where are you guys getting temperature numbers from? I see CPU utilization on the debug page but I see nothing related to temperature? Or are you telnet-ing to the device and running commands to get the reported temperature of the CPU and wireless chips?

I am not aware of how to retrieve temperature numbers, only the utilization.
