Yes. I've even tried removing both satellites altogether and change the MTU size (from 1500 to 1350). Still getting several alert emails and notifications. The fluctuations in speed from my tests is also very bad. One second to the next I'll go from 350mbps down to 30mbps down, then back up to 130mbps, to 4mbps. Been experiencing this across roughly four different firmware that I downgraded to. Funny thing is, when I first set up the Orbi system, the speed was consistently 300-350mbps everywhere in my home. I picked up Google Wifi and Erro mesh systems and going to compare over the next few days. If the experience is less wrought with bugs elsewhere I'm likely going to switch to a competitor and suggest to my friends and family to do the same, until we the customers no longer beta test for Netgear. Just my $0.02 on the matter. Thanks.
