Firmware Version 1.10.1.2
Does anybody know what they fixed? All it has in the release notes is "fixed some bugs" That is not a release note. That is a joke.

Hello Everyone

If you are still having issues after updating your Orbi unit you may want to factory reset the Orbi and test again. If you are still having disconnect issues or other issues with this firmware please create a new thread or contact our support team.

How can you be out if support, you can't have your Orbi long enough, surely?
I definitely think this version is much better, the WiFi disconnects are at least massively reduced, and the WiFi is more stable, certainly. I found 1.10.1.2 to very poor really, but this has so far been greatly better.
I'm still having Nest disconnect 2 times a day, but the IPad battery drain is much better too, and most importantly, my Sonos, Philips Hue and SkyQ, (which had developed terrible wifi download instability and speed on 1.10.1.2) are all working as your hope.
I've not used and wifi scan tools, but it all performs as good hope.
I'm afraid the download links they give you are only available for a few days, and mine will have expired. Under the terms of the NDA, I cannot share the files, you must get them from Nether support directly, they're very tightly controlled rules, I'm sorry.
I'm certain if you requested them, and raised a support case, they'd help you out, they've been great with me.
