If you are still having issues after updating your Orbi unit you may want to factory reset the Orbi and test again. If you are still having disconnect issues or other issues with this firmware please create a new thread or contact our support team.

I to missed the deadline to return. I've never had problems like this with a router. Was a lot of money for the aggravation. The constant disconnecting prevents me from using the geo fencing with Arlo cameras and is costing me money for data on cell phone. Worked great with my old router! I purchased these to have better coverage on my porches. Big regrets!
Disconnects issue has been lingering for a while now and patience running low especially those who are past their return date, we are at the mercy of Netgear Engineering to get a Firmware it that is stable and re-establish our confidence in this Orbi system that has great potential just held back and handicapped by weak Firmware to date.
