Hi FURRYe38:

So far so good (very short timeframe). Also, changed the NTP server from Netgear's to time.nist.gov. If I continue to have connectivity issues, I'll do the factory reset and re-setup from scratch. Thanks for your help.

I think mine became active when I started to use the app more, since one of the buttons in the application relates to traffic.

TM is disabled by default. You have to enabled it and configure it with in the RBRs web page for it to be used in the web page or Orbi app. I just enabled mine on the RBRs web page and it now appears in the Orbi app.

default (disabled) would mean that users had to go looking (in this case) trouble

Telling others that you enabled yours during this firmware foul up is not smart.

I'm a Network Engineer and saw it in the app and turned it on. It is off by default.
Once I read this thread, I shut it off and my network stabilized.
Stay away from this feature until Netgear fixes it and reports it as fixed in the release notes.
I'm still happily running 2.7.2.102. No issues.
