After installing successfully orbi rbr960 firmware
Today i install latest available firmware for my orbi works fine. just wants to asked i read somewhere after installing we need to Reset to factory default ? and if do pin hole so its means we need all setting again? at the moment after installing new fw I Switch off all and plugin is that ok
Only if you find that after doing a power cycle of the Orbi system off for 1 minute doesn't resolve issues you may have found after the FW update. Kind of a last restore thing as well.
I've been using the power cycle off of the ISP modem and Orbi system for 1 minute after a FW update is my default process. If I find someting odd or problmatic then FR is next.
15 second press on the reset button then release or use the ERASE button on the RBRs web page.

Finally i update my orbi via AUTOMATIC enables all goes fine without any issue. but nothing seems change but its new FW so i updated
Thankyou all
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
