RBR50 fw 2.3.5.30 wifi very instable
Hi, I'm running one RBR50 and RBS50 wirelessly backhauled since several months without any issue. I upgrade to last fw 2.5.3.50 two days ago. Since the upgrade, the wifi is very unstable. Most o...
Yes, I made some progress on this.
I manually downgraded to fw 2.3.0.32 and it instantly resolved my issue.
Then suddenly 2 days later, it stopped working with exactly the same behavior. I then looked into my console to discover that ..... Orbi has automatically upgraded to 2.3.1.60 (probably the newest from 2.3.1.50 ...)
Conclusion, fw from 2.3.1.50 does not work at all from me and Orbi started upgrading on its own (which is a behavior that never happened before).
To be honnest I'm quite disapointed with such an acquisition since unexpected issues are occuring every 6 months for an expensive device you want to install and forget... Of course, this is only my opinion.

Nicolas
There is no v50 version of FW for the RBR50.
v60 is available.
Try a factory reset and the RBR with v60 loaded and setup from scratch. I believe v60 will not auto upgrade after this and will only notify you about any recent updates in the UI. Will be up to you to update FW.
I agree, should have all these kinds of hassles.
