Why wont netgear allow me to downgrade my firmware, where is the "yes" button? (RBR750/RBS750)
First off, why isnt there a "disable automatic firmware update" option? This is a bit ridiculous. Ive spent close to 800-850 on my entire setup including an additional satellite and support contracts...

No and Netgear hasn't said anything. If you can return your Netgear Orbi, I would and never look back. Been too long to get a response from Netgear on a fix. I returned mine and got an Asus AX mesh router that works perfectly.
After the next firmware update, I recommend NOT to upgrade if your Orbi is working fine. This experience has left a very bad taste that will not be forgotten.
