New Firmware v2.5.0.38
All RBK 5 series Orbi's. FW not yet available on the download site for manual installation... Please perform a BACKUP configuration to file. Then update the RBS first then RBR lastly. Factory re...
Yes
Did you at least try a factory reset on the RBR after upgrading to v38 to see if this resolved your problem? I don't have IPTV here so I can test for this. I do have DISH Hopper system and having two Joeys connected via ethernet to the Hopper is working here for me. Though I think DISH protocols differ from IPTV protocols.

For example, it says one of my cell phone is on a "wired" connection. My Vonage box (wired) is wireless, etc. This is a really bad release.
No. I didn't have a backup from before the upgrade, and didn't know if one at that point would work. And, the problem with IPTV is uncertain if it was caused by the router, but the all the devices names all on the wrong devices defininately was. I shouldn't have to solve this problem for Netgear, so I went back to previous version.
Next time try a factory reset and setup from scratch after loading FW.

I'd like to see one positive post of an IPTV user stating everything is hunky dory.
Same here. Would be nice to really know if a reset helped or not. IPTV seems to be problematic with Orbi. :smileyfrustrated:
