Really! How long was "after a while?" I wonder if that's the issue that I had experienced? But what's weird is that despite multiple reboots, I was still having the issue.
I checked the current setting for my ASUS RT-AC68U and it's at the defaults: 2347 for years. Don't recall having an issue with my ASUS on that setting (as I never touched it) but I'll try setting the Orbi back to 64 again when I set it up after hours again.
I know with v32 on my Orbi AX I had used 64 for CTS for days and didn't see any issues. Only with use of 2347 would I see some issues with NEST controllers disconnecting. NG is recommending use of default 64 for CTS on Orbi AX. Seems to work best on v32. I see v6 is now posted for manual download. I'll get mine loaded up and check operation with new FW.
