You can ask the forum moderator for a beta. There is one avaiable if you want to try it.

Vajim, if Netgear has a beta version does that mean they admit an issue?
Like you, frustrated so much with the problem I went out and bought an RBK852. As I read this thread I think of all the people trying to keep their lives in order; work at home, kids and school, seniors that don’t have the skills to bounce back and forth. Netgear doesn’t understand who their users are.

Try posting in the Orbi AX forum for your model Orbi. Different hardware AND different FW.

Good Luck.

Furrye38, understood.
Just commiserating within this thread that I had to go out and spend over $700 to fix the problem as I couln't afford the down time anymore. Constant reboots, experimenting with turning features off/on.... I might return the RBK852 and reinstall the RBR50 as the RBK852 didn't really do anything for my overall performance (just helped with reliability).

Understand. However the one main issue with Orbi AC was Traffic Meter seems to have been the cause of some users problems. This was ackknowledged by NG recently. They also have a beta build for those users who want to try it. Again this is only for the Orbi 50 series.
If your having problems with the Orbi AX, I would suggest posing in the Orbi AX forum and get help there for that system. Others are seeing some problems in DNS. Some are not. There maybe help for you yet in that forum
