>> I read amazing reviews on Amazon about ORBI and settled on it instead of going with EERO PRO. I agree ORBI looks much cooler than Luma or EERO PRO and have more LAN ports. Recent updates to firmware made it worst. As a customer, I humbly demand Netgear fix

This is exactly my thoughts. My wifi was adequate mostly through the house.. some dead zones but for the most part ok. I cut the coard thsi year, added a bunch of Alexa's, camera's autolocking doors & security system, etc... I wanted a reliable fast wifi that covered all of my house. So, I purchased the 7000sqft setup from Amazon. RBR50, RBS50 & RBS40.

its been about 6 weeks, and to date, I am so very disapointed. the RBS40 actually works the best. devcies right next to the RBS50 will connect to the RBS40.

I have been monitoring the wifi signal from the router and both statallites, and I can see that one drops the 2.4 ghz band all the time. Single strength drops to just about nothing, when its normally the highest.

Devices that should be connected to the 5ghz band will switch back and forth for no reason that I can disern, as I can see NO change in that specific signal strength when it happens. And there is no way to force it.

It was an expensive solution, but a mesh-wifi was what I wanted to simplify things for my wife and kids.

But all I get now is complaints about "Dropped" "slow" "can't connect" etc.

The RBS50 is a boat anchor. NOTHING connects to it. and I can tell this because I am running 2.0.0.74 on all devices and the device list on all the devices work. almost everything downstairs connects to the RBS40, regardless of whether its far closer to the RBS50.

Afriad to upgrade to the beta, since I also work from home and can't afford issues.

And its too late to return. I should have gotten a powerful nighthawk router and put in an AP or 2, but didn't want my kids trying to figure out what to connect to as they rome around the house.

They better fix it soon, or I will just have to accept I am out $600 and have to change out my system. But I doubt I will be going netgear.
