If it ain't broken, don't fix it, that's my opinion, I have never done a factory reset after upgrading firmware and I have never experienced any issues, anyway if you still decide to do it, remember to backup your configuration in settings so you don't have to re-do the whole thing again, but if I was you I wouldn't do a factory reset, only do that when you have issues you can not normaly fix.
Thanks sir for the advice. Will keep using this as of now without doing a factory reset
You can consider using freeware version such as NetSpot to check which wifi, channels, and strength are surrounding ur environment before you decide which channel to switch on your Orbi router. I find this step to be very useful in choosing the optimal channel.
