    Hello Everyone

     

    We have release firmware version 1.12.0.18 this firmware has fixes for disconnects and many more I posted the release notes below.

    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.
