I have an Orbi RBR50 and RBS50 connected via wireless backhaul. They have been working perfectly for a year. For the past two weeks, the router has been dropping the Internet connection regularly, ...

Ah, that get out of jail card.
Some of the questions may not seem relevant to you. But they are refined in many sessions dealing with people who turn up providing poor details of what is going on.
By all means carry on moaning. But forgive the rest of us if we get on with trying to help people.

But your assistance is totally meaningless and just a waste of time. The Orbi-solution suffers from bad firmware. And someone should fix it asap. Otherwise my four units will be returned.

Not everyone is having problems with there systems. Are many factors to having good working wifi systems. Current FW version is working for many users.
The questions presented are valid and relevent and if answered allows us to gain a better idea of your system, configuration and settnigs. And helps us better help you to figure out if this is a HW, FW or user mis-configurations. If you don't want to give feedback to the questions or let us help you then you should probably return the system and find something that you can get working. Maybe Google or Eero would be more easy for you.
Good Luck.

That must be the statement of the day; "Current FW version is working for many users." It is like having an iPhone that is almost working. NG, if you have a product in this price-range it has to be flawless. Orbi is not in that category.

Maybe for you however we don't know and you haven't qualified or given feed back to questions so your point is irrelevant and pointless. If you don't want any help from the community getting your Orbi working then move along and return it for something that works for you. Many others on here that have working systems. For those that have had problems, they come here to the fourms and we help them fix there problems. :smileyvery-happy:

Having read loads of Q&A's it seems like you have helped no-one. You only repeat the same questions (how big is your house etc.) and the users give up in the end. Like I do now. Good bye.
