Interestingly, I was auto upgraded to 2.3.1.44 overnight. Not seeing it officially posted on the website as of yet, but there's a new thread on it with release notes:

Interesting. Thanks for letting us know. Hopefully v44 is even better. :smileywink:

- So my Orbi router factory reset itself again last night. I wasn’t anywhere near it this time. This time I had backed up the configuration, so I was back in business in just 10-15 minutes. Since this happened after the firmware upgrade I’m a little more suspicious of the router now, although it could still be an unknown firmware bug.
- On weblogin , i have “service inaccessible “ and an error message with the app when i am trying to verify firmware update.
Any idea how to solve it ? I updated to v32.
ThanksTry a factory reset of the base router and setup from scratch with a wired PC and web browser.

Can you see if you can update your system to v44?

Since this happened after the firmware upgrade I’m a little more suspicious of the router now, although it could still be an unknown firmware bug.- My RBR50 auto updated to fw 2.3.1.44, not sure when update happened. Manually updated to fw33 2 or 3 weeks ago.
Experiencing intermittent loss of wifi.
I found 2.3.1.44 for download this morning. I manually updated 2 - RBS50s (through .212) and then updated the RBR50 (through .212). I report the following:
1) WEB UI Backhaul Status no longer (at least for now) cycles through "config sync" and is steady "good".
2) Devices connect much quicker to the closest Satellite than before
3) Traffic Meter still not reporting statistics
3) The IOS Orbi App is worse. It shows "daisy chain" when I'm clearly in "star mode" as well as shows devices connected to a my Guest Network which is disabled.
When I reverted back to .210 after trying .33, everthing worked as expected, including the IOS Or.bi app
I've been a loyal NG customer for many, many years and now extremely frustrated with consistently buggy minor firmware releases..It shouldn't be like this...
You might try a full factory reset on the system and setup from scratch.
The Traffic Meter not working is known.
Make sure the Orbi app is up to date. Might remove the app and re-install to see if it changed the reporting behavior.

Thanks Furry. Whatever success I had vanished within minutes after posting. The "config sync" cycle reappeared, devices attached to a non-existent "guest network", and multiple device are off line. I reverted back to .210 on the RBR and RBS units and everything is back to normal and working fine..
Furry, reseting back to factory defaults is not in my plan and will not be. I believe your theory is sound but shouldn't be needed for MINOR software revisions of any knid, I could see it for a major (1st digit revisions), but not for 3rd and/or 4th digit revisions.
I'll keep .210 until I find a suitable replacement.
Anyone here have any thoughts they wish to share regarding Amplifi HD, Unifi or Synology?
