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.
My OnePlus 3 has been on Oreo since OnePlus released it for my device. I've not seen any issues with my Orbi system when my phone wakes.
Today I updated to the December security patch and still don't see any issues with my Orbi system. I'm baffled by the reports of Oreo devices causing WiFi instability.

Just curious if Eero or Velope have similar issue not able to accurately potray what devices are connected to which unit correctly
I’ve tested the Velop and can’t remember having problems identifying which devices connected where. 2.1.1.16 in Orbi does not identify what speed nor node devices are connected to.
Wish list for Orbi:
1. Identify to which satellite devices ware connecting
2. signal strength for each device
3. Device map redesigned ... prefer table format because with about 50 devices, info is spread across multiple screens in no particular order.
4. ability to sort ALL device lists by name, IP, MAC, etc.
5 ....
The Velop actually did not have a connected device list, if set up in bridged (AP) mode. As a router it did, but they disabled the device list in AP mode.
My Moto Z Play is not running Oreo. I'm still on Nougat. I suspect it may have something to do with the fixes for the KRACK vulnerability. Of course, I could be completely wrong. 😁

I wondered about that and was a bit nervous about installing the December patch (I believe I was on the September patch prior to this update). But I've seen no evidence of any issues caused by the December security patch with my Orbi system. So far. ;)
According to the debug page, my router has been up for over 6 days straight since I installed it. Now my connected devices all show connected to the Orbi router. Connection type is a mixed bag with some clients showing as connected by wire and some by 5G. A number of the wired connections are wrong as they are things like iPhones and laptops, etc. My iPad Pro shows as a wired connection, for example.
