This does indeed appear to be based on (identical to?) the last private beta V1.12.0.16 and has been released to the public. Hope it helps!
Guest mode AP isolation finally works 100% over IPv4...
New Features and Enhancements:
- Supports ReadySHARE Printer for Orbi devices that are equipped with a USB port
- Updated the OrbiOS API to v3.14
Bug Fixes:
- Fixes the iOS disconnection issue.
- Fixes the Dropcam disconnection issue.
- Fixes the convergence issue when an Ethernet connected device moves from one Orbi to another.
- Fixes the issue where the Orbi app can’t find the Orbi router if the router is using IPv6 and is in AP mode.
- Fixes the issue where the Orbi app can’t display more than 20 connected devices.
- Fixes the issue where the installation assistant might not display if the device is connected to the Orbi network wirelessly.
- Fixes the issue where the 2.4 GHz backhaul setting is disabled if the fronthaul MU-MIMO and TxBF is disabled.
- Fixes the issue where IPv6 devices on the guest network can access the Orbi router’s web GUI.

After updating to this firmware I noticed that all my devices are now listed as "wired" in the Orbi App and the Network Map in theGenie App. Even though they are wireless devices.
They are showing as wireless when I login in locally to the router as they should be. This happening to anyone else?

la79 yes I posted this issue in another thread, and another person also confirmed this so we now have 3 separate people reporting this hopefully Moderator or Netgear Engineering reading this
I also see all my devices as wired in the Orbi app.

I see the same behaviour, all WIRED in the Orbi app and all 100% signal strength in the Genie app.

Yeah - I'm seeing the same thing. Obvious coding error...

24 hour performance indficators for v1.12.0.8. As you can see, Satellite performance is terrible relative to the router. And my load on the satellite is trivial 99% of the time. Idle printer, idle Tivo, my phone getting periodic email updates.
And there is definitely a problem with the "Tx/RX B/s" fields. It appears to be an incrementing counter, not a rate indicator as labeled. Assuming the values are accurate, I'm also curious why the ratio is so skewed.
I am using NETGEAR app version 3.1.28. All devices are listed correctly, wired and wireless. I am using 1 SAT and 1 router. No outage since new firmware. Why is App question in firmwire forum? Most likely 2 different development teams.
Can I ask what steps you took to update to V1.12.0.18? I did an AutoUpdate and after the Router restarted is when I began to see all my devices listed as "Wired" in the NetGear Orbi and NetGear Genie App. Listed fine when I login locally to the Orbi Router.
I did have an issue with the Satellite not sinking originally with the Router but I then did a full reboot of the Router by unplugging the Modem and the Router and then plugging them back in.
I'm using that version of the NetGear App (3.1.28) and my devices are listed as "Wired." I have 1 Sat and 1 Router also.

They are showing as wireless when I login in locally to the router as they should be. This happening to anyone else?For what it is worth, the new iPhone Orbi app (released 7-27) now correctly identifies which devices are wired and which are not. The V1.12.0.18 is still working fine with my system (RBK53), I have about 30 clients connected, with beamforming and MU-MIMO turned on.
