The HomeKit issues I experienced with the last firmware are fixes in this one. If people were having issues where HomeKit devices were not responding when leaving the wifi network I recommend they move to this version as the problem has been fixed.
Throughout seems nice as well (running in AP mode). Wired device on the satellite is pushing about 820Mbps to a NAS connected to my main switch. Wireless laptop connected to satellite is hitting about 550Mbps

It really would have been super awesome if they included a link to the intermediate firmware somewhere. Probably right there in the KB article would have been a fantastic choice.
So for anyone looking for the intermediate firmware. Here are the super awesome links that they didn't include anywhere.

Had to revert back to 2.2.1.210 to get my WIFI speeds back.
Restored the FW plus a factory default.
Sadly, for every upgrade/downgrade got to be a whole procedure attached.
it seems my orbi is suffering some speed lose becase of LAN WAN (instead of WAN LAN used to be) connection, but it is much better now.
It is that or having HARD WIRE issues (barely use them currently), I'll have that.
