Firmware 2.3.0.32 overnight

My app came up with an update required to 2.3.0.32 firmware. I installed it and having some wifi issues now. There seems to be no mention of this firmware anywhere on this site.

      Yes, this software is currently in beta testing. I have it in my system.

      This software is not yet released as far as I know.

  • Try a factory reset on the system and setup from scratch. 

     

    What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
    Is the Orbi system operating in Router or AP mode?

    What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
    What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials.

     

    What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
    Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
    What WPA security modes are you using?

    Try enabling Beamforming and MIMO.

    dan801 The 2.3.0.32 FW you received is the offical FW not a beta you received it as part of limited FW push to test the FW process. What kind of WiFi issues are you having can you provide a brief description of that?

  • They haven’t released it for automatic update yet. You need to manually install images via orbilogin.com that you download from Netgear myprepaidcenter
