Hi Folks,
After going back and forth with netgear support numerous time, I've given up.
I have returned my orbi for a full refund from where i bought it and bought a ASUS mesh wifi instead - which is working reliably.
The 2 issues that lead to this point were:
1) the troubleshooting was gettng more elaborate, and was slowing crippling any of the advanced features I wanted from the orbi (eg: wifi6) and stil not resolving the problem. For a premium device, it should not be this hard...
2) My orbi's would randomly reboot every day or two.
I really don't know whether the root cause of my issues was hardware, firmware or both, but I surprised and disapointed that it came this this. I would have hoped for better quality given the price point. On top of that only having 90 days free support I felt was very poor as well.
Phil.
