Orbi RBS50 Will not factory reset
My Netgear Orbi setup has been nothing but headaches since purchase. Now my Orbi Satellite RBS50 won’t factory reset using the reset button on the back.
I’ve been reading these forums for year...

Probably not going to get responses recommending a different mesh system in this Netgear Orbi forum. People in this community have Orbi's. If they had found something they found better, they would be participating in a forum for that product.
I found it entertaining to browse through the user forums for Google mesh and Linksys Velop. I saw complaints about a lot of the same issues that are raised here.

I agree. I can’t figure out how to find a system that is stable. Reviews of products seem to be pointless because they are only using the product for a few days or hours before writing their recommendations. It’s why I’m not angry at Netgear. It just seems to be the norm for all router companies.
