Orbi Experience - (RBK50) AC3000
Just wanted to share my experience with the Orbi. I originally purchased it because we have several wireless security cameras around the house -also outside so I was hoping for stronger/more stable ...
Here is my current setup
- Firewall Router (Untangle u25) ip XXX.XXX.X.1
- 16 port switch
- Orbi RBK50+RBS50 in AP Mode (IP XXX.XXX.X.2 & XXX.XXX.X.3)
After the 1.12.0.18 update (straight from the FW it shipped with) i was getting intermitet drops on my S8+. I then proceeded to do a hard reset which defaulted ip back to standard but maintained the 1.12.0.18 FW. I then reconfigured and havent had any issues since. I have no issues roaming around my home without dropping the connection. As a matter of fact i am going to pick up another sat for one dead spot out towards my garage.
Which variation of S8 do you have? Carier / Patch level, Baseband, Kernel, Build

Are any of you running in AP mode? Maybe thats the difference?
Jd- I have no idea honestly. All I know is as of Sunday they confirmed there has not been a fix for the wifi disconnect issues outside of setting up the guest fix. But there are definitely dozens of others who have tried messing with that with no success that have the android platform S8
