Yeah, I'm ticked off, having same issue. Somehow, the auto install feature got enabled, not sure how. I'd installed Orbi app a while back to check it out instead of the web interface I've always used, I believe that may have reset it to auto install. I was on 3 versions back because I did not want to deal with lag, hangs and having to come back to this forum to see what the heck was going on with NetGear.
So now I'm back, complaining of slow internet speed, hangs. Using the debug page, I can see that the router is running 43% CPU load when on prior firmware that was less than 10% on regular basis. Also the web interface is now SLLOOOOOOWWWW. I can't believe the router and satellites actually auto updated correctly, they are all showing this updated firmware.
I so love to hate on Netgear but going into holiday weekend I can't deal with this right now.
Will a full reset fix this? Keep the firmware and just do a reset, name it the same with same password and everything will reconnect?
I hate Netgear, I really do. I loved our Orbi's until the 3rd or 4th firmware and until that last one from a few years back, was nothing but hell.
