Orbi firmware version numbers
Looking at the support site, I see there is new firmware available for the Orbi. My concern is that the "new" version is listes as 2.0.1.4 whereas the version listed as being the most recent older version (the one I am running) is 2.1.2.18. I'm either confused or there is a numbering issue here. Shouldn't the newer version have a higher revision number? One would think that 2.1.2.18 would be newer than 2.0.1.4.
What gives?
v2.1.2.18 was removed and pulled from the support site due to users complaining about it causing problems. v2.0.1.4 is most current released version. if you have 2.1.2.18 and the system is working for you. Keep it loaded until next official relased version comes out. Don't know so don't ask when.
If your having issues, NG recommend reverting back to v2.0.1.4.
