Orbi Firmware 2.3.1.60
Welp, anyone have any notes on this thing? It's already downloaded to my router and satellite waiting for me to pull the pin.
Hi,
Just for information, when you're in the Firmware Update page and it downloads new firmware to install, the version number next to both the router and the satellite is a clickable link.
If you click the link, it will show you the release notes of all changes between your currently installed firmware and the update.
Although, this "feature" is not hidden, it's not always obvious that it's there either.

The recommendation above your last post suggested disabling wifi on the host router.
Not essential.
I don't. But I have different SSIDs on Orbis and router and I am careful about pointing wifi clients at the right SSID.

Are you able to control channels to avoid overlap/conflict? Most would not know how to do this and if they left all the radios active and things were acting strangely, would make troubleshooting more complex.
I do enjoy the benefits of single wireless network and assumed most owners would use the Orbi to be their sole wireless system.
Just updated my system to Firmware 2.3.1.60 and everything worked just fine.
No hickups during upgrade or something like that.
Backhaul status is showing status "good" and everything looking good so far.
Thank you for letting us know. Enjoy. :smileywink:
