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 ...
Yes netgear please turn off autoupdate,and make this and option to turn off and on autoupdate.
so if there is problem in the future we can use older firmware thats working.

Fix what?
If you turn off auto update then you're happy. No problems. So what are you fixing? Older FW would fall under roll-back which I beleive is already available. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

I believe what they're saying is they'd like to turn off auto-update such that they can install older firmware...and have it stay that way until a time of their choosing.
Short of cutting off access to Netgear's firmware servers, you can roll back to older firmware, but you can't prevent it rolling forward ten minutes later.
Yes turn off auto update. Let me have the choice if i want an update. Letting netgear decide this broke my system and it took 5 months to start working right again. I would much rather make these decisions myself rather than let netgear break it again.
