Nope. Didn't want to have to re-enter options with a reset. Just downgraded the firmware.

Nice...now no more manual firmware updates
Next time you upgrade FW, try the reset. This will clear out problems seen after FW updates. Also be sure to do backup configurations to file for safe keeping. Helps save time. No issues with v38 loaded.

factory reset is for lost password
When you say reset, I power cycled all three orbis multiple times trying to resolve the issue. I did not do a factory reset. Yes. I did take a backup. Nothing wokred except downgrading the software. I will wait and hope the next release works better or you come up with better documentation in your release notes on the upgrade process.
