Slow downloads due to high CPU load with V1.12.0.18 firmware
My internet access is 1000/100, and requires VLAN tagging to connect. This has been working very well with the Orbi for the last couple of months. Since upgrading to V1.12.0.18, my download speed...
bigfellanz Have you managed to talk to support yet? I way away until the weekend, got an email reply from them this evening saying they be in touch soon. I just hope it's not going to be the usual turn-it-of-and-on-again stuff. I've spent more than enough time on this already.
At the moment I'm kicking myself for not just going with Google WiFi like I originally planned.
Thought I should update this - I've been in discussions with Netgear Support, sending debug captures etc, but unfortunately no progress and no advice beyond trying the beta release, which is disappointing really.
Problem is still there with V2.0.0.72.
I'm running V1.11.0.20 as this is the latest version where internet performance is acceptable.
Agree, latest firmware did not fix the issue. Thinking of downgrade to 1.11..0.20, will system revert back to latest firmware after reboot?

Yep, it will - there is a telnet solution listed elsewhere here that has done the job so far. Going back to this release has meant setting up another AP for Sonos & Dropcam as they refused to work reliablly with this version, which isn't ideal!
