Orbi firmware v2.1.1.16 discussion
do we need to do nvram wipe for this 2.1.1.16 Firmware just released today? noticed it downloaded automatically.
since update my wifi radios turn off after restarts. and restarting is troublesome. also the satellite won't reconnect unless i reset both units. i'll probably roll back to an earlier firmware after christmas.
I also had a $ in my router password. Removing that appears to have helped stability. It hadn’t been an issue until this firmware apparently since I had no issues in the year I have had this orbi.
At the same time I had Comcast issues, so it was hard to tell what was what.
so I’d suggest removing any $ in your WiFi passwords. Thanks to whoever it was who mentioned that.
