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.
Just a few thoughts.
It's okay to disable daisychain, recommeded really, if only one satellite in use.
Apples will benefit from MU-MIMO and beamforming.
If 30' separation between base and satellite, I'd go with wireless backhaul and see how that works out.
If you're going to play around with changing channels, using a spectrum analyzer will help more quickly find clean air.
The host router (what the Orbi is connected to upstream) should be in bridged or passthrough or DMS mode.
If you have Fiber internet and are only getting 75M down, somathing is seriously wrong and needs to be solved.
As a last resort, I'd do one more nuclear test and do a full reset using paperclip method. Do NOT restore any settings from backup and re-enter config changes manually.
I'd be surprised if the hardware has changed and I wouldn't bother with that route.
FWIW, what you describe as a setup is very similar to what I have here with the notable exception of having numerous Amazon devices.

Thanks. Will do. In regards to the Fiber speed that is the speed of my package. The next packages are 150, 300, and 1gb.
