I don’t think that answer is good enough for a customer who lost significant features in an upgrade. New product I get that, but to extend existing services then dates and commitments should be published. Hurry up and wait isn’t a good answer to customers who have a choice on where to spend their money.

I agree. Again, most mfrs don't publish or make public when new stuff is forth coming until they are ready too. Been like this for a while.

I am happy with two additional RBS 50 satellites I got it very cheap from the big wearhouse store. I am using the extra RBR 50 router for my vacation home. The satellites worked wired to my RBK 852 system. I have not tested RBS 50 wirelessly after yesterday's firmware update. I did not see wireless support in the release notes for RBS 50 or RBS 50Y outdoor yet.

Yeah, I returned my RBK852 after encountering a bunch of issues (and secondly, after realizing that Circle and Armor is not implemented yet)
But yes, it was a hardware update but a software downgrade at best.
I'm squishing all the juice out of my old RBK50 for now, hoping that the firmware updates doesn't become worst as they are right now.- PoolradJan 17, 2020StarStill no updates. Bought months ago.. still can’t buy another satellite and still no circle or armor. This is not a good customer experience, get your act together.
