iOS 12.2 beta on iPhone X and connectivity issues with RBR50

Where to begin...

 

Over the past 24 hours I've seen a rather serious problem with my iPhone X.  Symptoms include dropping WiFi Calling, losing wifi connectyity altogther, dropping down to 2.4GHz, not connecting to the RBR50.  This all seemed to have started after getting on the hospital's wifi where my mother is staying.  I'm also on the 12.2 beta.  A quick question, is anyone here using the beta with RBK5x setup and seeing any of these issues?

I ended up rebooting my phone rather than touching the Orbi.  My other devices don't seem to be acting wonky in the same way as my X.  Presently the X is getting a proper connection to the base router after the reboot.

    The firmware is out of beta and is now at version .32 for RBR50s.

     

    Update that firmware and see if the issue still exists.

      Talking iOS.

      I’m already running version 2.3 of orbi firmware. Why do y’all refer to it with suffix instead?

        There can be many iterations for 2.1, 2.3 and so on. Asking and talking about suffix gives what iteration information which is more important to know about.
