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

What the hell man. Orbi has been rock solid for months. Noticed random reboots today and yesterday. Sure enough, logged in a saw V2.3.1.44. was on V2.2.1.210 and everything was running smoothly.
Just tried to install V2.2.1.210 and got the error that this was NOT the right firmware for this model. Tripled check and I indeed have the RBR50 firmware. NG FAQ says in order to go from .210 to .44, we had to go to v2.2.1.212. How in the world did mine go from .210 to .44. Now, router keeps rebooting. Jesus Netgear...... you literally suck.
Yep this!! Not getting reboots but connection keeps dropping off. So pi$$ed off!!!
This firmware is amateur garbage. Incredibly poor quality control forced on customers by Netgear. Destroyed my network and costing me money. And no reply from the moderators in this thread:
I have an RBR50, an RBS50 and an RBS30, linked with wireless backhaul.
My system auto updated to .44 and everything works fine except for wireless to wired routing.
When a device is attached to a satelite, it cannot connect to any devices that are hardwired to the router. Internet access is fine though.
I would do a full factory reset and setup from scratch. Let us now if this resolves your problem. If it doesn't, you might try reverting back to v210 on the RBR.
So far the system I have has been working well with v44 for the past 3+ days.
