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 am very disheartened by this thread. I just ordered this from Costco.com after much reseach into Google WiFi, Plume, Amplify, etc. and now wonder if I should just return it without opening. It sounds like everyone is having to disable features I specifically bought this one over the others for.
Should I just return it, and if so, what would you recommend then? I have a 3 story 4200 sqft home where the internet comes in in the front corner of the middle floor. I feel like it is going to be hard to reach the entire house.
On a side note, I am using the AV500 powerline by Netgear, and was replacing this solution because - my WiFi drops randomly!
Netflix,
As others have stated, Orbi does work for some, but not MANY others.
Your best bet is to try it, see how it goes.
If you begin noticing problems, such as disconnects and other problems reported on this thread, then don’t waste your time fighting it. You are not alone and no fix has been released at this time.
Then, make you decision. Keep it and hope Netgear resolves the problem(s). Or, return it.
It's that simple.
