This was fixed eventually. Everything was working fine until the V2.1.4.10 update: now AirPrint isn't working. It would be nice if Netgear could perform some quality control.

I have exactly the same issue. System is completely unstable on 2.0.0.74 with 2 satelites. Version 1.x was working fine. In the last week I cant watch streaming TV without roku loosing connection. Smarthings hub disconnects all the time. This version is incredibly unstable. Have tried disabling the new daisy chain feature that I never wanted, but it fails just the same. Very very very annoying. Netgear need to pull this release. It's unusable. Rolll back or allow people NOT to upgrade. Dont force this alpha version on people.

Hello there,
I have tried suggestions in this thread but the connection to the internet keeps on dropping.
It’s really painful that after spending $500 or so when purchasing from Costco earlier this year we are facing this issue.
I’m contemplating sending NETGEAR a demand notice after speaking to my legal team. This is unacceptable treatment. My setup is not fancy at all.

Figure I'll just pile on. Same issues here. Started a separate thread about it. Worked flawlessly until October. Now it can't keep it a connection with any reliability. It will just randomly go out (generally at the most inopportune time.)

I've also got everything turned off and the amount of complaints with no resolution has me disheartened on Netgear.
