Hey....I would keep an eye on it.
Were you having problems with your network before the FW update?

Yeah the issues started a few days agos, well before I upgraded the firmware.
Hey...interesting
Some suggest a 'reset' to all may help. Once complete, the Orbi and Sats should load the FW that NG pushes. I would then leave it alone. If the problem persists then perhaps you have some other problem, i.e. modem, cable, etc. Lots of possibilities.
Nothing has changed with my Orbi since I got it, other than the updates that are pushed down to it.
I swapped out all the cables for new cat6e as I now have gigabit fibre in my house and everything was fine for 2-3 weeks on the previous firmware version with the new cables etc.
Modem works fine because I'm currently plugged into it directly as well.
The issue resolves when the orbi and sat are reboot.
