Part of my confusion is the similarity of our setups - I'm on FiOS, front-ended by an EdgeRouter and using Orbi in AP mode, and I can't _make_ mine fail, even when I've deliberately tried. There has to be something else going on here. I agree there appear to be two camps, those who never have problems and those who often do, but assuming the hardware is indeed 100% identical, there's some other variable (outside of the firmware revision) we're all missing.

Different hardware internals is a possibility. These companies source their hardware from different vendors so the internals in your unit could be different from mine. It could also be a bad batch of units. I will check if there is a hardware revision version on my units. Also, I don't use FIOS. I'm on comcast and thought it was a comcast issue at first until I switched to the Asus AC68U and packet loss went away. Also, downgrading from 1.9 to 1.8 fixes my problem also.
