Update V1.9.1.12 Netgear officially announcing 'Improvement in wireless connection Stability'
Just downloaded the latest release V1.9.1.12 and noticed in the official release notes from Netgear it states as fix 'Continious Improvement in wireless connection stability'..Dosent spefically makre...
I checked my units and I can confirm that there doesn't seem to be any obvious hardware revision printed on them.
Good news, and bad news.
Bad news first.
I was on travel this past week. I returned home today, and discovered my Orbi did auto-update to 1.9.x (after blocking http and https TCP, not UDP). I did see the previous posts indicating the additional firewall steps required to block Orbi auto-update. I will work on that this weekend (Netgear, I have a work and personal life, hence not extensive time to continue fighting Orbi).
And yes, my family told me this morning that “the internet began having problem in the past 2 days”. I wonder why????
The good news….
Netgear sent me an invite for a beta code release. But, they asked me to sign/agree to an NDA. So, to avoid losing my access to the beta code I now have, forgive me for not sharing too much.
I have the files as of 30 minutes ago and will load that new code/firmware tonight (after family goes to sleep).
May the force be with me, and with us ALL.
And thank you Netgear for showing me, and us all, that you seem to be listening and you care.
