I have heard of a lot of buggy installations of 4.6.7.13, surprisingly, I have had no issues, it definitely solved my guest network issues and that is a great help — so my kids and grandkids are not complaining that their devices aren’t working.
Perhaps some of these buggy installations are equipment related? It does sound like Netgear really needs to get on the playing field and stop released crappy firmware updates before thoroughly testing them for reliability across all platforms and scenarios.
Yeah, what's weird is, as soon as I revert back to v3, my whole setup is perfect. Everything is stable even at factory defaults. v4.* requires so much tinkering and it's still horrible.
It can't be hardware if a particular version works perfectly, right?
Can be HW, configuration or environment. v.5 and v.13 is more stable and works better at least on my 7 and 8 series then prior versions of v4 or first release of v4.x FW.
I thought you have up on NG and sold your Orbi?

- I managed to get a hold of NG via phone, who sent me a guide to downgrading, and I had no problems since. I had a buyer, but didn’t end up selling it once it started to work normally again 🙂 I figured if I spent this many hundreds of euros I may as well try to get my moneys worth.
I saw the updates here and the comments that the firmware was good, so I gave it a try, and it’s still really bad unfortunately.Well something to contact NG support about and let them know. Not everyone is having problems with this FW so possible there is a mis-configuration issue, something environment related or possible HW related.
