This issue still seems to be prevalent. I have a Nest Outdoor Cam that disconnects more than half the day. I checked my Wi-Fi speed, both upload and download, and they are both excellent (200Mbps down/25Mbps up). When will the Orbi be fixed for the dropouts?

Most other Orbi users no longer have any issues or dropouts with their Nest cameras. We need to figure out what's different about your environment.
What version of the firmware are you running? Have you tried toggling the Implicit Beamforming and/or MU-MIMO settings? With the latest V2.0.0.74 firmware there's no need to toggle these settings but let's see if they affect your environment. I don't have any disconnects or dropouts with my Nest indoor, Nest outdoor, and Arlo cameras.

Update...I have upgraded to the latest Outdoor Nest Cams and the issue went away. No more disconnects.

I am going to try and toggle those settings one at a time when I get home. I never had any issues with my old Apple Airport.
- ufgators2kOct 30, 2017AspirantNeither MU-MIMO or implicit beamforming are enabled. I am running 2.0.0.74.
