FW troubles. I have read so many post and tried every suggestion I can, but still have RBS750 not connecting since 4.6.3.7 and now 4.6.3.16 FW auto updates. When RBS750 powered up the white light blinks and "backhaul, guest, and whc-F12E15" shows up, on available wifi networks. I have reset, tried to connect hardwire locally, complete system reset to factory defaults and no success. I have router up and 1 satellite connected and somewhat working. Is there a definitive solution to this problem? BTW-I tried NG support and was left angry and wondering why I paid for this $400 system. Worked great for 9 months. Like the majority of posts on this I have read, I am frustrated. Any help is appreciated.

You can downgrade back to v3 if you want to try this:

Netgear pushed the Beta to my 753s. Unfortunately, the push only went to my 750R not to my 2 753s. I manually upgraded the satalites and then turned the settings back to 100% for the 2.4 and other changes that had improved the problem.
I am STILL GETTING DISCONNECTS - the FIRMWARE DID NOTHING.
I continue to have issues with the satalite disconnecting.
NETGEAR IS THE WORST.Maybe I should return these to Costco like so many others have.
Whats the point of pushing a firmware that doesn't go to the satalites AND also still has the same problem?- FURRYe38Sep 20, 2021Guru - Experienced User
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last update?
