Firmware V1.12.0.18 Discussion

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...

Okay. All Orbis on same fw version? No duplicate IP addresses visible in router login? I'm really puzzled, if you have rebooted the Orbis. Now, beyond my expertise. I'll watch this thread.

    Yup, they're all on V1.12.0.18. It looks like there are other Orbi users with the same loss of satellites. When I get home, I'll do a manual update of the firmware just in case it was corrupted somehow....

     

    Thanks for the tip on logging into the satellites directly!

    Mine ran about a day and then the following day in the afternoon the Sat dropped and was no longer connected. I could get to it via the IP, and had 2 devices connected to it but it didn't show up in the Router page at all.

     

    Reset both router and satellite and then resync both back up and its been fine so far.

    I had a bubble like that on the first day, then everything settled down by itself before I had a chance to restart everything. I hate networking. For me personally, it's the worst part of our computer age.
