New Orbi firmware 2.1.2.18 update issues?
I noticed that there was a new firmware version 2.1.2.18 for Orbi RBK50. Has anyone installed this version, and has there been any issues after the installation. Please provide any details that you...
Wondering if people on v2.1.1.16 are seeing the purple banner "there is newer firmware available" on their web admin GUI Advanced Status page? I'm not seeing that, but I'm also restricting my access to "netgear.downloads.com" via my main router (Orbi is in AP mode). I'm almost curious enough to remove the restriction to see if the banner appears, or maybe people are getting auto-updated without that warning ahead of time?
Anyways, sorry about all the difficulties that folks are experiencing...I'm hoping that the Google fixes coming out will fix a lot of the problems that people are having. We'll see...I don't have any of the Google clients that are apparently problematic, just a Pixel. Or my Pixel isn't in the mode that causes the problem.

I did not see the banner either until earlier this morning and then only after I hit the "Check" button on the Firmware Update page.
Interesting. I can get only the 2.1.1.16 firmware update in Europe. So weird.
