Two network drops since I set up the new speakers - full drop, Ethernet and Wi-Fi. Just in case, a Nexus 6P I have w/Oreo on it has been turned off. (There was some talk about Pixel/Nexus devices w/Oreo affecting Orbi).
So..mabye I have the patience to do a factory reset and give it one more try, but looks like I'm most likely going back to Eero, which was flawless (if not quite as fast) for the last few days.

Yep - I'm done with Orbi. Since going back to Eero this weekend I've been absolutely rock solid.
I guess part of me was hoping that the next Orbi firmware drop would solve most issues but nope.
