Samsung Galaxy S8 not working on Orbi RBR40
Galaxy S8 keeps connecting Orbi wifi with message "internet may not be available" then logging off again but all other devices including iOs, TV and laptop can connect quite well. I'm using 1000M int...
Its most likely the phone. There is a guy on reddit who got a new s8 because of this issue and has old software on the device and isnt having the issues on Orbi like the rest of us. Not even using the guest network work around.
Totally agree. Lets all contact Samsung. Maybe we can get the ball rolling faster.

Samsung doesn't have anything to do with the Surface Pro's, Ring, Amazon Echo's or the other devices. While they might be able to fix an S8 issue, they can't fix the others.
Given the S8 CAN function perfectly fine randomly on the Orbi with any firmware version, I still think folks are getting a single problem but are thinking it's only related to the S8.
Again, many devices are rock solid on the 1.11, and 1.12 firmware but some are basically unusuable.
