My ORBI was great for several months and has just gone to hell over the last few days. Reading this thread seems to indicate that the latest update created some major problems. I have to reset my modem and ORBI frequently and it still often stops working.

Same issue. I am all Mac and IOS. I replaced Eero with Orbi because Eero was dropping, they acknowledged they had Mac and IOS problems but never could fix. After 2 months of wrestling I threw in the towel for Orbi ( The Best ) Only to find having same issue. Stays up for a while then hangs reboots, Magenta light etc. So frustrated. 2 calls with support changing channels turning on implicit mode etc. Doesnt seem to work. Tech advised may need to swa hardware which franklly doesn't seem to make sense. There is an underlying problem with these mesh systems in my opinion. If no solution I will return. Hoping there are answers coming on this forum.
