Looking for a select group of Orbi Community members that are interested in beta testing firmware
Greetings Orbi Community,
We are looking for a select group of Orbi Community members that are interested in beta testing current and upcoming Orbi firmware to help broaden our scope of use cases in real environments. We are kicking off this beta testing program with OrbiOS Rel. 2.2 that is currently available for testing. This release contains the following:
- Significant bug fixes for stability & performance
- Update on Guest WiFi Schedule usability
- Update as of 8/22/18: Upon further investigation the Guest WiFi Scheduling feature has been removed from this release as it requires further testing. We will reintroduce this feature in an upcoming release. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
Please note: This Beta Firmware is available only for RBR50 & RBS50. Beta firmware for other Orbi systems will be available soon.
If you’d like to participate and provide feedback in our Orbi Beta Firmware Community please post a reply to this topic with “I’d like to participate in the Orbi Beta Firmware Community” or send a private message to Christian_R to be granted access.

Good morning Shad0w,
Hmm, I'm sorry to hear you haven't heard anything. I can confirm I sent you a private message with the link to the Orbi Beta Firmware Community on 8/15/18. I have resent it to you for good measure. Please feel free to send me a private message back if you still can't access the page with the links to the firmware downloads.
Best Regards,
Christine
