Welp. Netgear decided to auto-update my firmware to 2.3.5.30 and it broke my r7000 bridgemode again. Everything else connects fine to the Orbi. I also forgot to mention that I bought a new r7000 around the last time i was having issues. I now downgraded to 2.3.1.44 and it is working fine. How do i disable auto-update on the Orbi?

You genuises previsouly said one could prevent auto upgrade. Some rhetoric about only for minor releases, though specific details never quite got posted.

As far as I know you can't. Check your router at the login screen. According to NG, the only FW that is auto pushed (no action required by user) are those with major updates.
