Following the instructions from the above linked thread, I easily brought up the router config page.. which looked a lot more like the instructions! I made changes to only 2 of the command lines. The first one (orbi_auto_upgrade=x) already had a number greater than 1, so I left it alone instead of changing it to zero.
So now I expect to be notified of an upgrade, but only do a manual upgrade at my leisure instead of having the update done for me.

I have virtually zero experience here, but I suspect you would have to look in a different section (such as the one below).

My Orbi WiFi down again -- no idea why (I mean I don't know what the root cause is). No Oreo devices here, etc. Last reboot lasted a couple of days. I am still on v2.1.1.16. For those of you that downgraded, what are you running and how is your stability?
