I just update the router to newest firmware (v1.12.0.20) and the samsung s8 plus still dropped. I guess gotta do guest network a little bit longer.

Sprint sent my S8 Plus an update yesterday and my phone has been rock solid throughout my network since (not one drop). I am running an RBR50, 2 RBS50s, and an RBW30 on my property, nothing in AP Mode on firmware V1.12.0.18 (the RBW30 runs on V1.12.0.4 which seems to be for the wall plug only)
Sprint's info on the update makes no mention of Wifi fixes in particular but here is the info:
Samsung - Galaxy S8+ (SM-G955U)
Software Version:G955USQU1AQGL
Release Date: 8/14/2017
Method: Available OTA + OEM Tool
Fixes:
A software update can include, but is not limited to:
- The security of your device has been improved.- Wi-Fi Calling is now Calling Plus with new & improved features.
- Enhanced Messaging new features.
- Device stability improvements, bug fixes.
- New and / or enhanced features.
- Further improvements to performance.
I recieved the Sprint update a couple days ago to my s8 plus and now the main network on my Orbi has been rock solid. I disabled the guuest network for now and am giving it a try.
