For those that want to update, if you don't see v16 as a notfication on your Orbi system, you can manually download the FW files and apply them your self thru the RBS and RBRs web page:

I finally stuck with version 2.3.5.30 and everything seems to be working fine.

I usually go by the general rule of “if it ain’t broke don’t try to fix it”
Thanks for any suggestions.
