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

Will this get pushed automatically to routers that still have a Router and Satellite at 2.2.1.210? I have a pair and the upgrade didn't get pushed. The Router and Satellite that had 2.3.0.32 got upgraded last night. On 2.3.0.32, I lost my internet connection several times and had to reboot to recover. I was planning on dropping back to 2.2.1.210 before I saw that a new version had been pushed. We'll see what happens....
I was on 2.2.1.210 and was automatically updated to 2.3 1.44. I didn't know that would happen, because of the two step process to update to .32. I am still seeing config sync issues and the map in the Orbi app does not agree with the WUI on the RBR50. Will downgrade to .210 when I get a moment.
I'll be checking on this this week. I got a loander RBR50 to test for someone and will check the satellite behavior.
Ok up and running with a RBS50. Took a bit to get the RBS50 updated, finally on v44 as well. Factory reset and hit the sync on the RBR and RBS. BLUE appeared after a few minutes. I did see the config sync in the connected devices at it was being added. Then GOOD and POOR appeared for some reason. Then Config Sync appeared once more before GOOD showed. This was with a wireless backhaul. I guess the sync finally settled in. After that, I connected the ethernet cable from my network as I wanted to get the RBS connected wired. I saw a big slow down of the PC when this happened. I look at my network monitor and saw something being downloaded while I was watching the RBRs web page. After about 4-5 minutes the top led turned on BLUE. I did a IP address reservation for the wired RBS and it's now in it's remote location servicing a ASUS wireless media bridge for a DISH Joey. RBR50 has been up for 2 days with out any issues so far. WIll see how adding the RBS does. 30+ mixed connected devices.
