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 ...
Hello there! LOL so I was planning on doing a manual firmware upgrade to the latest firmware earlier this evening. Then I just found out that somehow, the Orbi Router and Satellites were automatically upgraded to the latest Firmware V2.1.4.10.
Keep in mind that I was previously on Firmware V2.1.2.18 and had NO PROBLEMS whatsoever. Non at all.
That said, the Release Notes do not show a whole lot of bug fixes.
1. - So my first question is: Is there more to this new Firmware than what is listed on the Release Notes?
2. - Also, at the time of this writing, I am not experiencing any issues at all. Should I go ahead and do a 'Factory Reset' any way? Or should I wait until I start seeing issues. If the latter, what issues should I look out for?
Thanks!

You can look at release notes from v2.1.3.4 as well as this would be included in v2.1.4.10.
No, let the system run. If your not experiencing any issues.
If you seem to, try and power off the Orbi system for 1 minute then back on and check.
