KRACK Patches for Orbi?

Hi,     I haven't seen any firmware releases for the RBK50 system that address KRACK -- Is there Beta firmware available yet, at least?    Thanks,  --S

Hi!

I’ve seen the KB, thanks. What I don’t see are the patches themselves. Please let me know if they’ve already been released but we are missing them somehow.

Thanks!

    This company has the worst support in the industry.  Eero put there Krack patch out weeks ago.  They are losing their reputation FAST!

      I agree!! Overpriced mesh router with terrible customer support. Last one to patch the most significant vulnerability in wifi in years. Will never buy another netgear product. $500 mesh router doesn’t even support VLAN tags let alone still being vulnerable to KRACK. For the security conscious consumer stear clear of netgear products!!!
