Firmware V2.1.1.16 auto update
we'll be removing the v2.1.1.16 firmware from the auto update server over the holidays and will resume pushing it in the new year. Firmware will still be available on product support pages for manual...

Darren,
Can you tell us what issues the engineering team is aware of and investigating?
Beyond the display errors of devices not showing connected to the satellite, are the engineers aware of and actively investigating the reboot issues that are occuring with a large number of users?

To stop that from happening requires the use of Telnet. Some people may not be comfortable using Telnet to modify their router settings.
Netgear did call a truce during the holiday and promised not to send us any more router bombs during the holidays. Nice of them don't you think.

Indeed, because it seems that I am constantly at war with them to keep my network working properly.

Hey DarrenM - Happy New Year.
I know you probably can't commit to a release schedule, but I am curious to hear if your engineering team has been able to replicate any of the issues reported here (or if there is something that we can do to help).
EDIT: I see the beta release here now. Thanks! https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi/OrbiOS-2-1-1/m-p/1476960#M19962
