Does Orbi Wifi 6 support DFS?
...and if not, is there a plan to include DFS channels (US) ? Thx
Not currently. NG doesn't make it known if or when new features are forth coming. I presume since Orbi AC doesn't have DFS features, Orbi AX will probably follow suit.
Makes sense - but in an environment where I use 100% wired backhaul, I would not use Orbi's wireless (DFS, high channel) backhaul, and thus would want to be able to utilize DFS user facing...

Well, in that wired backhaul-only set-up you might want to use both 5 GHz radios for the fronthaul. This was requested on Orbi and Orbi Pro - it was not considered to be added to Orni, so it's not there on Orbi AX either. On Orbi Pro both 5 GHz radios (the low and the high band one split to lower and higher channels to avoid interferences) are both configureable. You might want to search the Idea Exchange for Home thread, convinced there are already similar ideas filed for Orbi, which should be applied to Orbi AX, too.
