I too had issues with 2.7.2.104 until I listened to FURRYe38. He said that after installing the firmware, you have to reboot both your modem and the Orbi (after waiting for 1 minute, restart the modem then the Orbi).
Also, he said to change your NTP settings from Netgear's time server to time.nist.gov.
I have done both of those things, and have had no issues since.
ok, i changed the NTP, and rebooted everything, will let folks know if it holds up!
