I will disagree and we have a few VERY vocal individuals that are having issues. In my experience people typically don't report good news or a normal working setup. Personally I would think if this was a big issue people would be flaming all the good reviews and editor choices and it would make all the tech blogs
Myself and several IT friends have the 3 pack units with no issues.
I have been out of town and haven't yet had time to test with a wifi analyzer. Too much work related work. Since I am not experiencing any kind of noticeable issues it's not a priority to be honest.

Ts937km,
I too am an IT professional with a couple decades under my belt and had the 3 pack from Costco. When I initially unboxed it and set it up, it was running fine for a good 2-3 months. I have what I would consider a normal setup. About 3 wired devices, including a synology NAS and the remaining 18-20 are wireless, including a printer. I don't have anything else besides my cable modem and a router, the Orbi at the time. My house is 2 story with an unfinished basement and about 2600 square feet.
I can't recall when I initially flashed the satellites and router but it was most likely right after the initial setup it but I do remember everything started to go downhill after a specific flash some time later and continued flashing of the FW with newer public versions and beta versions did not help. The last beta FW created so many problems I had to disconnect both satellites and go to the router alone. Even with that I was experiencing dropped packets. Not significant but noticable doing a constant ping and working from home this isn't good when trying to do Webex, etc.
Being asked by support to provide a network diagram and make and model of every device on my network is absurd. I now have my previous Apple Airport Extreme connected and have been using it with all devices since yesterday and I haven't had one dropped packet and no disconnects. The AAE is in the exact same location location as the Orbi router as well.
Bet wishes to you and others who aren't having the issues.
