WOW, this morning about 2am i decided to update my two ORBI RBS satillites first. and that went ok, till a fantom ORBI showed up in my Orbi App. i then proceeded to update the RBR750, that went well till it said it was online but it wasnt. i followed the directions according to Furrye38, (ty) and i unplugged the sats and then the router, waited 2-3 minutes then i plugged in the router and then the sats and waited........it took a few minutes and the router came online then the sats followed. it still took some time for all my devices to get back on line (about 60), which is normal thing that has been happening. then today was the test. we had some heavy thunderstorms roll in, these south florida storms alway knock out some power or damages some weak transformers to were the power goes on and off real quick. it happened 3 times in a half hour i also have the comcast modem and the RBR750 plugged into a surge and battery back up. the weakest like here is the sats, no battery-back up for them and they used to take forever to re-sync but after the upgraded firmware last night, WOW, the ORBI's came right back online which shocked me, i thought i would need to reboot the sats. but no input from me and the whole system came back online quick. i am no IT guy here but this is a major inprovement from the previous firmware that almost killed the ORBI system. thanks to all here on this forum, i have learned alot from here.
Ok back from vacation and took a few reboots for Mac to see /get on wifi. One on changed the ax radio button from on to off and did a soft reboot . So turned only ax off just for 2.4 and when it came back all was working again. Before then was getting purple , after soft reboots, on one or both satellites after soft reboots and sitting for a bit. Also kept dropping and picking up Wi-Fi devices.
So now for 2 days on latest firmware that was all I did. Have 2.4 at 50% and this allows evenly balanced devices. Speeds are good like before .
Sadly could not do some of these via web app/remote
We will see if it continues

And this is with v14 loaded or did you revert FW back to v3?

- This was with the latest firmware
4.6.5.14
Had downloaded the v3 software and was going to downgrade. But thought let’s try one last thing and turned off AX 2.4 and nothing else and reboot.
I did remember others turned off AX and did not want to turn it off for 5 but thought why not 2.4 as only wifi devices use it.
And boom on reboot all connected right away including iMac .
For previous week rebooted remotely from another country and nothing worked and only had 1/3 of my devices and one satellite was usually purple / offline.
Hope continuesMake you wonder if there is a bug in AX mode on 2.4Ghz...
Will keep this in mind.
- Also somethings that I never had turned on
Traffic meter is off
Logging is off both were never on
Can’t think of other things that I might have on or off that others might have different
