If someone has issues with his Orbi system I suggest this procedure:
1) take a backup of the config on Orbi
2) Reset to factory default
3) setup Orbi and reload the saved config from step 1
If this does not help, then we can think about a firmware downgrade or reapply of the same firmware file again.
Your suggestions are already proven to be of no help. Read the 100's of posts in here. Then on top of that you tell people to reapply the same firmware. Now that's superior advice.
The moderators here will be telling you to remove you disclaimer flame.

Your post claims v104 is just fine though:

Vajim's lack of knowledge and experience, your mileage may vary. >vajim. User beware. :smileysad:

Sad that he has to spread false and inaccurate information and badger and troll others that are just providing help to others. Must have a sad life.

Hey here's an idea.....instead of you two beating me up, what don't you channel your energy and actually help someone.
Pick one of these posts where the user is having problems after a firmware update, reply/quote to it and share your bountiful knowledge.

I would do that, but as long you are spamming all posts with "do a firmware downgrade / revert firmare / .." I do not see a good reason to try to give some real help here ... The only thing I can do is to warn the community from time to time ...

That's lame. But why should posts stop you or anyone. FURRYe38 ignores me all the time.
Go ahead....help away....we'll see if you can actually unscrew these problems. Who knows you might be a hero.

Hey here's an idea.....instead of you trolling, badgering users that DO help others, posting false and inaccruate information, why don't you channel your energy and actually help someone with good infornation and work with others who are clearly helping users who ask for help instead of false claiming it's a firmware problem. Not all problems are firmware related. And yes firmware DOES work for some people. Why not work the problem to find out what the real problem is. It's what the forum is for. Oh but thats beyond your capabilities and comprehension. Sorry. I forgot. My bad. :smileysad:
Pick one of these posts where the user is having problems after a firmware update, and avoid reply/quote to it and avoid your bountiful knowledge.
