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.

As an addendum, I will note that the traffic meter no longer seems to work properly. The only row with any data usage at all indicated is the "last month" row, and it shows a ridiculously low volume of traffic (0.02 up and 0.03 down; 0.05 total). 0.0 for today, yesterday, this week, and this month. So it doesn't seem to be logging any usage at all (or, at least, not displaying it properly, if it is, in fact, properly logged). Also, for all rows, including last month, it shows connection time being 0:0, which obviously can't be right, either. Again, I don't know whether it's a logging issue, or just a display issue, but something's not right.

I haven't really had any issues with it, other than it keeps notifying me on the Orbi app that it has updated the firmware to 2.3.1.44. It first auto-updated several days ago, but only the router (RBR50). I used the app to check for updates manually to see if that would force the satellite to update, and it did not. I waited a couple days, and it still did not. So I logged onto the web configuration and maually had it check for updates, after which is detected and installed the update for the satellite (RBS50). Since then, I've gotten two more notifications from the Orbi app that it has updated the firmware to 2.3.1.44. This brings the total to three. Other than the unnecessary updates/update notifications, and the fact that the satellite didn't auto-update on its own, with no prompting, it's been working fine for me. No issues with connectivity, sync between the router and satellite, randomly blocking devices on the access control list, etc. Everything seems to be working fine.

Well, it seems that v44 Daisy-Chain is still not working properly. I disabled Daisy-Chain and it was working as expected. Today, one of the Satellites decides to daisy chain (Sigh).
