Firmware V12.1.11.15_5.4.12 on RBE971
Hi,
I have a Tado internet bridge connected to an RBE970 satellite LAN port.
After firmware update the bridge lost network connection.
When moved to a network extender the bridge works again, so seems there is an error in firmware.

Does this device work when connected to the RBR?
What was prior FW version that worked on the Orbi system?
Factory reset and setup the Orbi system from scratch to check this?
Don’t know, its not possible for me to move it.
checked the log, there is no mention on what firmware version it was updated from.
As I’m disabled because of surgery in the right foot, it is not possible for me to do, the satellites are out of my reach, and i have to move them to router to connect.
Maybe have a friend, nieghbor or family member help you out?
As this a new ‘feature’ introduced by a firmware update, I wold like to know if it’s something Netgear will correct in a new firmware update or leave as-is?
I haven’t received any information that Netgear would be stopping support for 10 Mb/s, half duplex in new firmware.
I’m not so well funded that I’m able to change my whole Tado setup ;-)
I would not call this a new feature. More like limitation.
The quickest work around this is to get you a cheap GS105 or GS305 LAN switch in between the RBR/RBS and these devices that only support 10Mbps. What I did with my devices that only support 10Mbps. I have a few.
I haven't either and had noticed that my devices were not connecting with Orbi BE series.

v12 was a big feature and function update, replacing the "core" Qualcom functionality.

A little bit to early ... first the information on the broken 10 Mb HD and FD functionality must hit the appropriate desks.

This was unlikely planned or intended.
