Look as I send the info my wifi drops yet again! I uploaded the pic to show you all. Honestly if I paid like $100 for the system I would probably complain a little but when you pay over $500 for the unit pluse another $200 for another extra 1 satellite you really get upset!

Exactly! I have bought the same configuration and very dissapointed. The lack of coorperation and communication of Netgear worries me most. Managing expectations is not their forte.

2.1.2.18 seems to drop wifi connection often. After a power cycling the satellite, it will immediately work again. I had a beta version of the firmware (2.0.1.2) that was solid for 2 months. Unfortunately, I can't downgrade since Orbi auto updates to the newest firmware.

Like others, I have two satellites, both the RBS40. One of the two will not connect to anything anymore. Even after a reset. Running 2.1.2.18 firmware. It is very frustrating. I'm about to give up and ship this set back to NetGear. Hard to believe they put this unit out with connection issues.
