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...
When I pushed for a response on my physcial router having disconnect due to NG cloud this is the response I recieved.
"To answer your question, when your router was first updated to 3.2.10.11, there's a feature on the router that was not updated and causing the disconnection. To fix this, we need to downgrade the firmware to 3.2.9.2 and the firmware would be updated to 3.2.10.11. It's the same version but it now has the fix."
I'd like to know what "feature' but I was told its confidential. Well, I'm not so sure about that answer so I'm challenging it. Anytihing uisng my personal data connection from my house has not been released in any manner. Nor has it been agreed to in any disclosure agreements. I'm positive a laywer will enjoy this response.
I guess they needed a week to fix their “server issue”. Makes no sense for a router that can be configured locally via web interface, unless some data goes back and forth, somehow—which means a backdoor is lurking somewhere, lovely.
Preserving all my wiresharks, they could prove useful down the road.
I just bought a couple of Ub!qu!t! APs, that was the straw that broke the camel’s back for me. Netgear won’t take back this turd, time to sell on eBay while the router + 2 satellites version is out of stock on AMZ.
