    It's working great for me - installed ~24 hours ago, and I have no operability issues so far.

     

    I wasn't having any issues with last few f/w versions either though.

After the update, as before, I still have to power cycle my satellite several times per day, sometimes every 1-2 hours as it still drops internet connection.

I just want my money back (out of return window)... I will never buy, or recommend any Netgear product again... they have taken way too long to fix any of the issues with the Orbi system

    TP-link, Linksys, and others have already gotten it fixed... How long for a Chromecast/Android fix Netgear?
