I upgraded by Orbi to 2.2.1.210 - everything seemed fine. I have a guest network (with a password) that I leave disabled and only enable when we have a guest. It is also set to not allow access to my LAN.
A few days after upgrading I noticed that my guest network was active with NO PASSWORD and it could access my LAN (the guest network has a password set). I logged into the Orbi console and it was still set to disabled, but it was broadcasting and I could connect to it with no password. The only way to turn it back off was to turn the guest network on and off again.
This is a serious security flaw! I now have major concerns about the security of this device which I've had no problems with for over a year.
Tried to roll back to previous firmware; but the Orbi just automatically updates to the latest.
Anyone else seen this guest network issue?
Try a factory reset and setup from scratch:

Hey I just wanted to say still that the IPV6 dropping after a few days still happens in this firmware. I have to still go in and reapply it, however now it takes a few more times before IPV6 comes back. This really needs to be fixed, IPV6 shouldn't stop after a few days.
