Has anyone returned to costco after 90 days? The disconnects are killing me....
Keep going through the firmware updates, but daily I have to unplug and restart the system to reconnect. VERY frustrated....

To answer my own question: yes, you can return to Costco within a year. They took it back at over 6 months with no questions. Love Costco.
Never got anywhere with Netgear support - by phone or via forum. Got tired of wasting so much time on this. The offer to help on this forum was a dead end.
Bought new Eero Pro - set up in about 10 minutes. Had one issue, called support 7PM EST, immediately spoke with a knowledgeable, super-cool guy who helped with my issue. The interface is super slick. Miss all the ethernet ports of the orbi but I'll deal with that. Much rather have reliable internet!

You don't work for Netgear and are not support. Stop wasting peoples time.

however as a superuser i am able to offer assistance to get ppl through to level 3 support and a much quicker way to get the issue sorted or rma and avoid end users having to go through level 1 and 2 support
as posted all i need is the serial numbers , an explanation of the fault/s and a few other details which i can then pass onto support who will then take the case on
at this stage no one has actually taken up this offer and sent me the full details needed
