After getting the beta firmware and installing per instructions, I can report that it did not do anything to correct my device connectivity problems.
I will be downgrading to V3 until Netgear can fix this major blunder.

The fun continues indeed.
I had the RBK50 which worked perfectly for 3 years. Then I upgraded to RBK753 which worked nicely for 1 year - until v.4.6.3.7 that is!
To have a perfectly working system break for months (and still broken) due to a forced update is a particularly bitter pill to swallow. I'm sorry Netgear..it may be time to say goodbye..forever...

Is this thing on?! Testing. netgear, hello!?
Anyone having any luck getting the beta? Netgear admins should just be sending it out to people on here. This is absurd. Thank goodness for Costco's amazing return policy. Going to take it back. Costco should just drop the brand. Maybe try out the Linksys Wi-Fi 6 mesh system.

Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
I would power OFF the ISP modem for 1 minute. Factory reset the Orbi router and power it off. Power ON the ISP modem and let it sync. Then power ON the Orbi router and walk thru the setup wizard again using a wired PC and a web browser.
