New firmware is available via the GUI ....
Let's hope for success.
Let us know if you experience any issues after updating FW.
Let us know if you apply the new FW and continue or if you factory reset the system and set up from scratch. Hopefully you can just update and continue, however if you seem to experience issue. Please try a factory reset if needed.

I need t reset to factory conditions and start over from scratch to get devices to switch to the satellite and also to stop showing the connection type as Unknown if they did show up on the statellite. All seems well now, though.
My system went from good backhaul to poor on my two satellites when upgrading. I had on star connection. Tried several things (normal what one would do) to no avail. Change to daisy chain and now backhaul was good. Previously daily chain gave me poor backhaul and star good for all the time I have had Orbi (about 11 months). For some inexplicable reason, the system now works better on daisy chain.
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials.

Everybody (router, two satellites) is 33 to 34 feet apart. Nearly isosoles triangle. One leg with a couple of interior walls,other leg with minor obstructions.
Glad the reset helped. Seems to be the norm for Orbi now days.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
