Working well, but to be honest never had any real issues before. I've got a router and 2 satellites covering 3100 sq ft (3 floors), so I have pretty good coverage to start with. i just need 3 for wired connections upstairs/downstairs.

Quick question for you all, I appologise up front if this has been discussed before (if so let me know where). I see people talking about turning back on the implicit beamforming. Was implicit beamforming not wave one tech for older devices to benefit from, now that wave two AC is here (which Orbi is) explicit beamforming is the new default. A much better service for those with AC network cards in devices and any IOT products in their homes. I am a little confussed as to the want to turn back on the old wave one implicit beamforming?
Am i missing a benefit by leaving this off?

Second day. Think its safe to say that the .34 is much more stable on ios and osx devices. Have not seen a drop since installed yesterday
