Orbi Firmware update 2.5.0.38 problems
Have a 2 year old RBR50 with 2 satellites - have had no problems until recent update to 2.5.0.38. Everything is working howerever the GUI now has issues when attempting to display devices. The web ...
The reset and setup from scratch on the RBR will probably fix the issues your seeing. Try then when your ready.

400 Bad Request
This server does not support the operation requested by your client.
Mobile app does not allow a firmware downgrade as far as I can tell.
Is there a way to telnet into the router and downgrade the firmware?
(have not yet tried reset - saving as last resort since things are 'working')

Yay, about time. One of the executives must have finally had some problems because giving the "Just Completely Reset Your Router" and "No one else is having this problem" finally caught up to the decision makers. What possibly took so long to make this change?
EDIT: I realized I STILL have issues with v30 - thats what I have installed after my last complaint and it's the same problem. I gave up for a few weeks hoping Netgear would get it together.
Some guy on Slickdeals said the following: "I went to v2.2.1.210 and its resolved my issues with Apple Products. I've turned off auto-updates and its been working normally for a week now." Going to try this one. I hadn't updated the firmware in a while so was using one that was likely before this one.
