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 also forgot to add that before I did the factory reset I noticed that on the home screen the number of Sats. keep moving back between 0 and 1 on a couple second basis. Since the reset it is holding steady at 1.
I seldom found reasons to grade/update the firmware. based my experience (25 years) they're rarely useful, you can not remedy bad design or poor mfg. QA of hardware with software. If the doesn't work within 24 hrs after installation, I return it and wait for the next version or buy a competing product.
