Since the 70 isn't an official firmware update, i am going to skip it until it's official or someone has successfully installed it.
It looks like some people are getting issues with this update and had to roll back to 16.

Yes keep with v16 if you haven't seen this come thru the RBRs web page. I see some are seeing it on the Orbi app. I guess thats fine. NG told me that v2.7 is specific to Circle users. If users are not keen on updating and there systems are working fine, then skip the FW update seen in Orbi app and continue on. Users should not be downloading the files from the auto update links. Wait for official files to be posted on NG download site.
