RBR50 - 2.7.2.104 firmware - Issues?
To whom it may concern, FURRYe38: After upgrading my firmware to 2.7.2.104, I have been having issues. Devices successfully connect to the Orbi, but have no internet. If I reboot the Orbi and ...
Bill a factory reset will solve your problem. It did for me. Had nothing to do with the firmware. Other people have rolled back to previous firmware versions with no results. Uncheck Advanced>Administration>NTP Settings>Automatically adjust for daylight savings time
A Netgear developer introduced a Daylight Savings bug.
So happy that I read this before I am getting this bug. We will have day light saving on 28/03. I therefore disabled daylight saving and changed the NTP server. hoping this will prevent taht I am getting this issue
Well, here I downgraded to 2.6.1 but doing so screwed the admin interface authentication so I had to do a factory reset too. So far, so good, no more problems, but I cannot say which of the two solved it. Only thing I know was that it was a HIGHLY frustrating experience.

what firmware did you end up on?
Thanks for all the feedback and advice!
Yes, to say it was frustrating would be a huge understatement.
I started to downgrade the firmware to 2.6. In the process, though, it forced me to update my password and questions (orbilogin.com). After the firmware completed, it wouldn't let me log in, as the new password had apparently not completely propogated. So it wouldn't accept the new, old or default password, nor would it accept my recovery question responses.
I ended up doing a factory reset (actually, multiple resets), and also having to wipe the app from my phone. It took hours . . . and multiple restarts . . . to finally get the router and satellites to all sync up properly and get connected back to the internet. In the end, based on some of the feedback, I allowed it to return to 2.7 firmware (satellites kept randomly disconnecting from router while on 2.6).
Hoping to stay connected today. If not, I might start all over this weekend.
