I have the Orbi Pro 5

The Orbi web interface is truly cringeworthy. I have the Orbi Pro 5 and have the same experience when using the Attached Devices UI and trying to set custom labels and icons to devices. In the browser inspector I can see that the web form (apply.cgi ... who uses cgi anymore?!?!) is actually being POSTed twice, for some reason. Lots of old janky code in there, I don't know why they don't attempt to clean it up. I can only get it to update say 60% of the time.

  • Who uses cgi? Simple answer: the same interface that lets you port forward Quake 2 & 3. I'm missing ICQ in the dropdown menu or good old Need for Speed.

    I need to say, when it works the Orbi works fine but the interface its really slow.
