Unfortunately I can now confirm the latest beta firmware (V2.0.0.64), only resolves my issues until the next reboot. I can reproduce the issue with 100% reliability.
I couldn't be more pissed off that I've wasted so much time with support, gathering logs and taking endless screenshots, for them to deliver a supposed fix that clearly wasn't tested at all.

I can confirm this as well. Everything was great until I rebooted the router. Then downstream speeds dropped to 1/10 what they were. I'm now in the process of rolling back to v1.12 and doing the NVRAM dance. SMH.

Downgraded satellite to 1.12, downgraded router, nvram wipe, factory reset, back to normal.

Is there really anything to do? I can't handle the complete instability. How do we get access to beta firmware as I'm about throw this set up on Craiglist and try something else.
Constant dropouts, weird dead spots, BUT when it works, it works amazingly. it's just not that often.

While the newest Verizon update made no difference for the S8+ issues for me, the 2.0.0.64 did restore WAN and device stability for the multiple echo's, surfaces', and Chromecast gen 1 and gen 2 devices.
We were able to watch a full movie on chromecast for the first time since 1.11.0.x was released.
Nice to finally get back to the stability Orbi had before that release.
