if you have updated to any v1.10 or newer firmware and are having issues with wifi not working go to advanced / advanced setup / wireless
check that the ssid broadcasts are not unticked
if they unticked , tick them and save / apply
this should solve the issue
its a known issue that netgear is working on , this is the work around for now

Good luck to you all. I have given up and sold my orbi at a substantial financial loss, but with a net gain. I gain back my time and lack of frustration in purchasing another product that just works. Unfortunately, Netgear has a great idea but only a half baked product, hoping that we/you will stick it out until it is fully baked. My fear in that is that with a 1.OMG release, there will be a condition in which the hardware will not be able to support the necessary changes in code to run properly, hence making an Orbi 2.(0H.. this is what it should have been from the start). I am personally not willing to beta any further. Too many issues for something that should just work.
Good luck all.

Tom,
What did you switch to if you don't mind telling us? I'm genuinely curious.

CafeTom,
Fully support your decision.
I am 99 percent to the same place.
I am out of town for the long weekend. No time to play wth Orbi.
Still planning to replace Orbi if not working by June 1.
