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.

What is this "gateway"? (People use that term to describe all sorts of stuff.) Another router of some sort?
Is the Orbi in AP mode?
Clarification: My Orbi RBR50 is connected, via Ethernet CAT6e, directly to the Fios Optical Network Terminal (ONT) and not used in an AP mode.

OK. Not a "gateway" as most people would recognise it, regardless of the label the ISP uses.
Have you performed a Factory reset?
No, I have not yet performed a factory reset. This will be the next step if I lose service again today.
