RBR850 Frequent Disconnects Starting March 9th AM EST
Yesterday 3/9, starting at about 6AM EST, my Orbi system is disconnecting my Nest Cameras and Thermostat and my work laptop every 10-20 mins or so. I have about 20 devices connected to my mesh syste...
I have had the same issues of dropped Skpe for Business meetings and calls starting 3 days ago both connected and Wifi. Reset both modem and RBR850 and satellite (RBK852) but no change. Called Spectrum and they looked at my records and saw only 1 drop and that was when I didi the modem reboot. Spectum is not the problem. I pulled the RBR850 and replace it with my old N900. The problem is now totally gone. I called Netgear and have a incident ticket number. They told me that others are having the same issue as this thread indicates. I was told by NG this morning that I could revert back to an earlier FW but I have not the time. I would like to know if NG has any timing on a fix any time soon because if they don't, I will try the FW change route. If they are close to a fix I will stay on my old N900 until released. It seems there is a lot of fiddling and not a prescibed work thru that has to go with reverting back to the earlier FW based on what I have read here that I would like to avoid if we are looking at a quick FW fix.
NG Please share your expected fix timing!
