Google Home and Chromecasts UNUSABLE with Orbi

Hi Gabe, am currently testing the latest 2.0.0.74 version and had similar issues. After several tests, the current one that is working is:

1. Make sure the Router and Satellites are updated to the latest (In this case, the 2.0.0.74 for RBS50/RBR50 or 2.0.0.74 for RBS40) by going to Advanced -> Administration -> Firmware Update as seen here:

2. After upgrading all the firmware devices, turn them off and factory reset the main Router (This was needed for me to get a maximum speed of 100Mbps again and have all chromecast and chromecast ultra work correctly).

3. Configure the main router again from scratch and let it detect and configure the rest of the satellites. Make sure the satellites do not get the Amber or Purple light since that means they have connection issues with the router.

4. For testing purposes, setup the wireless settings like this:

As you can see in the image, the Enable Implicit Beamforming, Enable MU-MIMO and Fast Roaming are all disable. This solved the issue with my Samsung TV disconnecting, my iPhone and Android disconnecting, the Chromecast disconnecting or lagging and the achieving maximum internet speed throughout the house instead of the 50% or less speed I was getting before.

4. Position the Satellites in strategic places to make sure you get the best results and take into consideration walls, wall thickness and material, other 2.4Ghz devices near the router / satellite, Bluetooth devices that could interfere if too close to the router / satellite.

This is all I did in my particular case.
