Orbi MR 2.1 Update 3/23/18
Our teams are still working through the issues, but I wanted to provide a quick update on OrbiOS 2.1. We usually wait to release our software until it's available across all Orbi product lines, but ...
I have updated my two RBS50 satellites and the RBR50 router to 2.1.3.4. Now, one satellite won't sync, and the other shows a backhaul of "Poor". Before, I had "Good" for both satellites. I did have multiple dropouts, however. These units have been problematic for me since day one with multiple firmware updates and excuses from NetGear.
I factory reset the router and both satellites 3 times now with the same results. I'm dont wasting my time with these.
NetGear - get your **bleep** together. What a terrible product. I will donate these to Goodwill.
If this system does not start working like it should then I'm going to return it tomorrow. I really want to like this system but I also need it to work.
