New - RBE970 / RBE971 Firmware Version 9.12.3.3 Released

Glad you got it updated. Be sure to save off a new back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Thank you for the much-awaited update. I was beginning to think we had been forgotten about. 

 

Will post an update if I encounter any issues. But thus far things seem quite reliable. 

I did a Speedtest using Orbi app to get speeds to my router and then tested to my computer over WiFi7 to see how much of that I can get over WiFi.  Looking great and better than the throughput I was getting on the old firmware (not sure yet if that is meaningful).

 

I have XFinity Gigabit X2 with 2000DL/200UL

Speedtest on Router: 2308/239

Speedtest on Wifi7 Laptop within 20 feet of router: 1532/239, Ping: 9

Speedtest on iPhone 15Pro (WiFi 6E) within 20 feet of router: 1333/237 Ping: 17
