Just a question, didn't do the ORBI an automatic reverse to the latest firmware after you did a downgrade ?

if you block it correctly, the auto udpate don't happen if you downgrade.
- SloanstarOct 06, 2021GuideTo block updates, it was pretty easy for me. I run pihole, so i just pointed the Orbi dns servers from the internet setup page internally to pihole. Then I blocked regex:

So far so good. Only has to last until the weekend when I can swap it out. Ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro should be here tomorrow.
In 2000 I added my first company I would never do business with on a personal level. It was AT&T. I've since added HP and U-Haul. Congrats Netgear, you've made the shortlist at #4. There is no product that you offer that is any cheaper, well supported, or feature rich than any of your competition. You do not significantly distinguish yourself in any way unless you consider your lack of software QA and overall apathetic stance toward your customers distinguishing factors. I look forward to the class action. You will not be missed.
