I am currently on IOT network with my pixel 8 pro
Can you tell us when will you guys release the firmware. I am currently on IOT network with my pixel 8 pro.

Did you get a beta version from NG that was working? If you had then updated over that, then you might have re-introduced the problem. If you have the beta version from NG, you'll need to apply it back ON again to the RBR. You'll also need to disable Auto Update as well on the RBR first.

Everything looks good on my end as well so far with the beta firmware and pixel 8 pro on my end. Just a quick question. What does PiHole DNS do? I know the 240mhz helps with better traffic for wifi which I might end up applying today when I get home.

PiHole is a Raspberry Pi based DNS filter/ad-blocker. Blocks many ad-provider networks at the DNS level.
- AbbasRazaNov 16, 2023GuideGot it thanks. How do I enable IPv6?
- nakiriNov 16, 2023Guide
Check you ISP's webpage for specifics but probably want to enable it with Auto Detect or Auto Config. You may not need it though since legacy IPv4 is still supported almost universally. In my case I need it for WFH corporate VPN for family members when they visit.
- AbbasRazaNov 22, 2023GuideHello, it has happened again!! I just updated the router yesterday to the new V9.10.1.4 firmware yesterday because I got the prompt that I needed to update my router. After that is back to the same issues where I get random reboots and when I leave my home with the pixel 8 pro and come back home, the router just goes on reboot mode. Sometimes I have to lower off and on the router.

Did you get v.4 from NG via PM? or did the RBR update via auto update?
Please confirme what version of FW is currently loaded on the RBR and all RBS...

If I go back on my primary SSID the orbi goes cukku cukku again.

- AbbasRazaNov 22, 2023GuideOkay I will send a private message to the engineering person and get the firmware again. How do I disable the auto download on RBR
- FURRYe38Nov 22, 2023Guru - Experienced User
Check for a enable and disable Check For FW Updates on the FW Update page on the RBRs WEB Ui.
Did you not keep the intial beta FW file they sent you?

I have reached out to him. He previous had V9.10.1.3001. V9.10.1.4 does not have fix for Pixel which is reason why he sees issue again.
- nakiriNov 22, 2023Guide
Thanks for confirming that. I had turned off auto updates and will also stay on x.x.x.3001 for the time being -- which is working fine for me.
Is the Pixel 8 Pro hot fix in the next release stream?
- AbbasRazaNov 28, 2023Guide
So far so good. The Router has been working great under this V.10.2.3. with my pixel 8 pro. I have not installed my one satellite since i have updated to this firmware because i noticed whenever any device that is using the quest SSID for some reason when they are connected to the satellite the device shows that it has full connection and everything but there is no internet working for example google chrome, youtube nothing loads. Do you think this new V10.2.3 fixes this guest network issue?

IF you didn't update the RBS, lets get that online. Hopefully it will connect so you can update the RBS.
