I'm not sure what is happening with Orbi/Android but I switched back from 2.1.1.6 to the .74 firmware and it eliminated the reboots. Then, I switched to the latest beta firmware to test it a second time. I had some free time over the weekend and I wanted to see if there was anything I could try to make it stable. The reboots were still there and I decided to ride this whole firmware drama back on .74. The problem is that now Orbi is rebooting on .74 when I unlock my phone.
I can't understand why it's only a small number of users experiencing these reboots. What makes some users' Orbi so much more stable?

I don't think it's a small number of users that are affected.
I can't understand why Netgear doesnät say something public about this rather big issue??
