If someone has issues with his Orbi system I suggest this procedure:
1) take a backup of the config on Orbi
2) Reset to factory default
3) setup Orbi and reload the saved config from step 1
If this does not help, then we can think about a firmware downgrade or reapply of the same firmware file again.

The moderators here will be telling you to remove you disclaimer flame.

Sad that he has to spread false and inaccurate information and badger and troll others that are just providing help to others. Must have a sad life.
