I definitely think this version is less stable on older orbis.
I managed to capture a Oops kernel crash shame netgear dont have support that wants feedback or pre beta community testers so we could help fix issues. I'm sticking with old much more stable firmware.

My Orbi was purchased back in 10/2016. Doing fine on 2.1.3.4 after about 1.5 years. Is that old enough *smile*? Anyways, I agree about Beta testing firmware. I've seen that Netgear does that with people that are having problems, but I don't know how much Beta firmware testing they do with people that aren't currently having problems. Seems like that would be a good thing to do as well, to catch oncoming problems before those problems are auto-updated onto all our routers. I, for one, would be happy to Beta test new firmware. It's in my interest to do that, and I enjoy Beta testing.
