Orbi RBR50 Firmware V2.2.1.210
Stupidly, I updated my firmware yesterday, from a rock solid system to what seems to be, a less effective network: V2.1.4.16 to V2.2.2.210.
My issues is that signal stregnth is reported to be varia...
Thanks, I'll try it. I've reset the Plug In and router, but not the Satellite.
I'll try again tomorrow and let you know.
Thanks.

Let us know how it goes...What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials.

- The separation is about right, add it's not changed since the unfortunate update. It's definitely the new firmware that's the problem. Previously the system was absolutely rock solid.
A further issue, not so important I guess, is that on the IOS app, the router is shown as offline when using a remote connection. (it's not disconnected of course, it's just another problem with V2.2.1.210)
The signal strength of the PLUG-IN is still significantly reduced.I would try this, download the v210 FW files, manually install them using IE11 or FF browser. Factory reset the entire system and set up from scratch. See if the problem continues, if so, you might revert back to last working FW version...

I'll give it a try. After that I have to options: just stuck it up, or but be kit and update to V2.1.2.410 or whatever it was.
I'll let you know.
Cheers.
