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!!

We are looking into the attached devices showing as 0 and I will also pass along the issue of the High CPU usage.

I reverted back to v. 2.0.0.74 and now everything works again. All attached devices are showing up again.
My Set up is RBR50 as AP and 3 RBS50.

Cheers, I'm about to do the same. I should have done that straight away when I saw the thread rapidly expand when people were discovering the same "new features", but I really wanted the new parental control so stuck with it.

The sad thing is, based on the past few disasters of releases, they'll auto update them all to the high CPU utilization rebooting router every 25 minutes version for us anyway.
It will affect some and not others. Then when they fix it, it'll affect the ones that weren't affected by it this time.

I think there is a Big bug in the latest firmware?
- harshakavuriDec 08, 2017GuideAfter rolling back to 2.0 it was stable for a day or so now I am having restart problem again. It restated 2 times last night itself.
cpu utilization seems to be normal - Retired_MemberDec 08, 2017
