Make sure that you also report these problems to Verizon Support so that they can work with Samsung. These problems with the internet connection probems on th Orbi started occurring for most people after the July Galaxy S8 update on Verizon. So they need to work with Samsung to get this resolved. As noted everyone, Orbi works just fine with all other devices, the problem is the Galaxy S8 on Verizon.

I am beyond frustrated and have wrote reviews on Amazon and Costco for people to stay away from this product - It is unstable and unusable for the past month. Support is slow and non-helpful.
writing negative reviews may be the only way to insure this will get fixed. Companies are in business to make money if they get negative reviews they start listening. I will do the same
Too many fake 5 star reviews...
Anyway, the Verizon August update for the S8/S8+ was just delivered. As I expected, a disconnected happened within about 10 minutes of receiving it. The problem isn't an S8/S8+ problem only.
