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.

I've had mine for 2 weeks now. Initially I was getting reboots, but that was very obviously the Google problem. They would hapen first thing in the morning when my tablet woke, or when I would get home, etc. Once I got the updated version of Google Play Services the reboots stopped. I've been 5 days stright without one. I usually have about 27 devices connected at any one time. A mix of wired, 5Mhz and 2.4Mhz.
Everything else is stable and fast. Much better than my old ASUS RT-AC87. That thing was so unstable I had to schedule it to auto reboot once a day to keep it running consistant. Even with that it would regularly just lock up and have to be power cycled.

Yes it does.
It has been up and running from day one exept from some conection problems between router / satelite when the .18 firmware was released.
But when the connection was back it has been stable.
I even went out and got myself the RSB30 wall plug satellite yesterday and that worked out really well with the connection to my system as well.
So for the time beeing i´m a happy Orbi user. :smileyvery-happy:
