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?

Factory reset worked for me and others.
Good luck though. Reset or revert.

I'm having the same type of issue since this update, no changes in placement of my main orbi unit and 2 satellite units. On wirelss video conferencing and wifi calling are absolutely horrible. I've tried rebooting my routers resyncing the satellite and not improvement. Anything that is wired works perfect was my whole home is streaming apple TV HD and 4K streams without an issue. Please help any ideas on how to resolve as the wirelss issues are impacting my ability to work from home.
Doesn't need a factory reset. Needs someone to get off their rear and write a patch to fix it.

My post re problems with 2.5.0.38 was October 31st. Is there really no official update other than to revert or reset given a month has passed? I also removed bit defender from all my devices due to the speed impact. The naming of devices is my main issue as speeds etc otherwise are mostly steady and predictable over the last month.
