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.
