Orbi firmware update v2.1.4.16 availability

I can't/don't want to run my Orbis in router mode.  

In Australia I am still on a crappy 5Mbps ADSL2+ service distributed on a 100 year old copper network designed for a plain old telephone service that requires a modem.  My service, although crappy, is stable and the Orbis in AP mode deliver a good, stable outcome that works.  Whan our governemnt upgrades our broadband later this year, I will go for router mode but not until then.  I'm not rocking the boat just yet.

But as I have my Orbis working flawlessly in AP mode, I am demonstrating that the core WiFi functionality and wired backhaul works.  You have to then ask the question "What is occurring in router mode that buggers this up?" 

Here's a tip.  Why not beg, borrow or steal a third party router and hook your Orbi system up in AP mode and see if it works?  At least you can test your basic configuration and if the positioning of your Orbi devices is optimum.  If in AP mode, it works, and in router mode it doesn', then perhaps the problem's in the way you have set up your Orbi in router mode.  

In other words "Try running your Orbi in AP mode and not router mode...then report back"

I'm not an Orbi tester, i'm just a consumer who has an interest in this stuff.

My posts are my attempt to be helpful and share my experiences because they work.  I'm perfectly happy to stop commenting
