is Orbi working for you?
How is the latest firmware ...2.18 doing for you? Have your problems been fixed? I get drops all the time. It is so unreliable that I am sad to say I am ready to leave Netgear after 10 years.
Mostly. At least I don't have the outright crashes a lot of people here do.
But enough other niggly issues that hurt me after spending $330 on it:
* ping RTTs
* nodes wandering inexplicably between satellite/router
* strange issues from my work laptops (VPN and Skype disconnects).
I’m having the same issue with VPN drops and Skype issues which is really frustrating because it’s a necessity for me. I’m getting really high VPN latency for some reason. YouTube on my iPad seems to hang like every 10 min but then pick back up. I have rock solid connectivity to my modem so it’s def something with the orbi still. I’m on the latest .18 firmware.
