Thanks for sharing. Are you running dynamic or static IP in AP mode? I have the same setup and tried both dynamic and static IP (no google stuff) and with the new update, I need to do a factory reset after an hour or so. Prior to the latest firmware, I was able to run around a week before I need to do a factory reset (note, I can't just reboot the system it need a factory reset to get it working).

I gave both the Orbi and the satellite static IPs outside the dynamic range; everything else gets a dynamic IP.
fyi in the advanced wireless settings I have beamforming and MUMIMO enabled, I have fast roaming OFF (when I experiemtned with it on I had problems). I have daisy chaining OFF.
As I mentioned in previous posts we are an all Apple home except for a Brother wireless printer
sorry you're having problems....

Sorry.. one more question about your setup... did you keep the private network at 192.168.1.XXX? I have to move mine to 192.168.0.XXX since that's where my whole wired network are at.

The Orbi is at 192.168.1.100 the satellite at 192.168.1.250 and everything else is in between
