Since updating my firmware to v2.5.1.8, my orbi phone app no longer shows devices connected to router or satellites on network map. Does anyone else have thos problem?

Hello Ukgrauel & caremd99,
May you try performing a factory reset on the Orbi units and let me know if your issue persists.
Thanks,
Christian

Hey. I have the same problem and in my situation, I narrowed it down to one device, my Denon AVR-X4500H. When that device is not connected to the network, all devices show up in the device list of both the router and the satellite, but as soon as the Denon joins the group, everything freaks out and all devices disappear from the router and satellite and in the Device Manager screen, the devices are no longer sorted by the band that they are connected to but simply by WIRED or WIRELESS. I had the RBK53 kit before i got the RBK852 and it did not behave in this manner at all. I don't believe this is an app issue.
- caremd99Mar 30, 2020AspirantJust to close the loop the Support Team did help me out. I am running a beta version of firmware and now the app shows everything properly.
