Yes this is the most recent firmware and has been stable for me - there is a BETA for the KRACK fix 2.0.0.76 but I have not yet updated and will wait for the official firmware.
- Run to the store and return the unit while you still can. Get any other Brand that is on the shelf. Save yourself any grief with orbi.
Even if this version works for you now, when they release a new version, orbi will auto update without asking your permission . While there are older version that seem to work well for different folks, the orbi will insist on automatically updating to the current version within days without asking for your permission
