Just logged into my router and it gave me the option to upgrade the firmware.

Haven’t had too much time to explore but early indications are WOW !!!

glad to see this hit the servers , its been brewing in beta for quite some time
apart from the daisy chain topology users should notice stability improvements as well as an improved attached device list and a few new things in the advanced setup section including vlan support

I'd expect the daisy chaining to come with a throughput penalty, similar to a repeater. I have only one satellite, so I can't test it.
Well, considering I’ve been banging on about ethernet backhaul for months I’m glad I held the faith and stuck with it.
One happy camper here :smileyhappy: :smileyhappy: :smileyhappy:
Bing-StrollerAre you assuming (or have you confirmed) that daisy-chaining means Ethernet backhaul? I would think it means wireless meshing of the satellites, especially since the setting is under Advanced Wireless settings.
Any way to force the Daisy Chain? My router in the media room connects to the Router, not to the Satellite that is closer and on the same floor.

Your router? are you using the Orbi in AP Mode? if so the router is not supposed to connect to your Orbi but the other way around, Do you mean a Wi-Fi extender or repeater? in that case the Daisy Chain feature is I supposed only supported wile using the Orbi main unit and any additional satellites you connect to it.
Too tired. I want this topology. Satelitte to Satelitte to Orbi Router.
