If this is the same 9.11.0.1 as the beta version that Straq made available to folks by DM, then I need to report that this beta works better for 2-3 days, but my whole network goes down about every 4 days, requiring a manual power cycle of the Router. When it goes down, the Orbi admin pages cannot be accessed even when my computer is connected via Cat6A cable to the primary router.
Straq is aware of this and has a picture of my network map.
My satellites are wired at 10g speeds using XS508M switches and CAT 6A cable. Straq has the team doing internal testing to see if they can reproduce this issue with a similar network map.
I have reverted to the previous “stable” release to see if the issue now occurs with it. It hadn’t previously. We can’t have our whole network going offline every 4 days.
Is anyone seeing this issue?

Can you test with out the XS series switch in the mix to see if the problem continues while v9.11.0.1.
Connect the RBS directly to the back of the RBR or connected them wirelessly.
One issue I found with my 970 series is that if a managed switch was in the mix with the RBS connected behind this switch, Guest Network was not accessible and not working to connect anything too. I moved the managed switch and GN started working. I also have a XS505M and a GS110MX non managed switches and haven't seen any issues while using these switches in the middle.
Had a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed to see if this stopped the network from going down while this version of FW was loaded?
