I had the Orbi mesh system that includes the RBR50 router and 2 satellite RBW30 about 2 months. I've upgraded to the firmware version 2.5.1.8. I have couple IOT devices (Nest Yale X Lock, Nest thermostat) that only connect to the 2.4Ghz and every couple days, they go offline so I have to reboot the Orbi system couple times to get the devices to be online again.
Another issue that I have since day 1 was that the Guest Network never works. aboutpetguide I can connect to it but couldn't get to the internet.
Anyone having the same issues? And suggestions?
I am having the same issue, did you resolve it.

You may have noticed that the two posts in February about problems with the Guest network have never been followed up. It appears to me that the people who started this discussion are no longer participating.
My sense is that you are more likely to get a resolution by starting a new post with a description of the situation. i.e. which Orbi models, with which firmware version. A device connects to the Orbi "guest" network and receives an error message instead of a connection?
The more specifics, the more likely it is that someone will have a useful comment.

Not yet. I have tried other suggestions that I found online but didn't seem to help.
