FW 2.1.1.16 Update broken backhaul
The update from 2.1.1.12 to 2.1.1.16 has reduced backhaul status to POOR from GOOD; not what you like to see really Sysyem configuration and positioning unchanged, tried both a reboot and resync ...

After 30 minutes, my satellite now shows as connected at 5Ghz. So in my case updating the firmware on the satellite (and resynching them using the buttons on the back of each) resolved the issue.
I left the daily chaining on in case I decide to add another satellite to the system.

how can 2.1.2.18 be classed as older than 2.0.1.4 on the website and yet the orbi says its older how on earth does that make sense.

v.18 was removed from being current version due to user complaints. NG now recommends using v2.0.1.4 is the most currnet version.
If your not having issues with your system, keep whats loaded on it. If your using v18 and having uses, NG recommend reverting back to v2.0.1.4.
Hopefully new update will be soon:

Thanks for that very interesting Backhaul I'm having an issue with myself so the revised update will be interesting.

You might ask NG support if you could try a beta if ones available. You'll have to phone contact them to ask.
LAN backhaul is working for me. I persume it will be in next update.
