Have a friend stating that he's seeing v3.2.15.25 appearing as a FW upate for the orib 850 series in the Orbi app.    Anyone else?    Nothing posted to the manual download site.    And look wha...

Good to hear it's getting out there. I'm enjoying mine in AP mode. Will check out router mode soon.

    Updated both the RBR and RBS 850 via the GUI. At this time there is no manual update/download from the NG downloads website. The new firmware showed up in my recently updated Orbi app for iOS and in the GUI. The firmware update was done without a hitch. After the firmware update I did a complete wipe (pressing in the reset button on both the RBR and RBS until it started flashing amber) then setup the Orbi system from scratch using the Orbi app which went off without a hitch. I use my RBK852 in AP mode and not router mode. No release notes available yet. My speed test via the Orbi app works great in AP mode by the way FURRYe38-it is behind a RAX200 at the moment.

        Ok, confirmed Speed test is working on the RBRs web page an on Orbi app after a factory reset and setup AP mode from scratch. 

        Another case of when a reset is needed after a FW update. :smileywink:
