I've been having the same disconnect issues with the latest firmware (V1.12.0.18). It seems the WiFi is connected to my Android smartphone and tablet, but the internet is not available. My wife reported to me she's been having the same issue with her iPhone as well. Very frustrating. I tried to downgradt to V1.9.1.12, but I can't seem to get the main router to accept the firmware (the web page just spins and spins and doesn't finish). I'm at the point now of ditching this system and going back to a conventional single-Router system (not Netgear!).

Try a Factory Reset and try to load the FW of the Satellite(s) first. May have to plug in directly to them with Ethernet. Even if you get the system to take a rollback without a factory reset, in my experience something still doesn't work right unless you do a clean load.
Also, if you can return the system for a full refund you will be better off than those of us who missed our window of opportunity. Even if you get it stable and working as it is supposed to, it is a crapshoot whether the next FW update jams up your system.
