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 saw a few posts from moderator in other threads that Netgear Engineering is aware of the iOS wifi drop issues. hopefully a Firmware fix is in the works it is very frustrating.

If anyone from Netgear reads this, I have it quite reproducble (at least on iOS) and would be able to help troubleshoot if you need it.
