New Orbi RBR50/RBS50 Firmware Version 2.3.1.44
Netgear is pushing out yet another a new Orbi firmware update.
Hopefully it's better than the last version v32.
Please share your experience.
Firmware Update
...
I just did my 3rd or 4th reboot of my Orbi router since yesterday due to losing my connection to the internet (ISP). I thought this was happening as a result of updating my firmware to .32. I then discovered that my router and satellites had been updated to .44. Have anyone been having issues with losing their internet connection (ISP)? I use Fios and my router is connected directly to the gateway.
So just to clarify you have your RBR50 set to AP Mode under advanced?
-Thus your FIOS Quantum router does the routing
-You have disabled Wifi on the Quantum router
Your RBS50 Sat is how far/how many walls/floors etc from RBR and using Wifi backhaul?
- No, my RBR50 is NOT set to AP Mode. I only have internet service with Fios and use my RBR50 for routing - no FIOS Quantum router. I have two RBS50 (satellites) in an Ethernet backhaul configuration - one two levels apart in my second floor office and the other in my outside office house. Again, this configuration has been working until the firmware updates. I don’t know what is causing the RBR50 to use its internet connection/service I have, on average, about 58 devices (WiFi and Ethernet) on my network - not running 24/7.
- Correction: “I don’t know what is causing the RBR50 to lose its internet connection/service.”
