Testing status of 9.13.1.2 (ongoing updates)
Summary: IPv6 failed, 1 flip to 5G cellular from iPhone, memory use growing a little on 970 - watching that one.
I installed FW 9.13.1.2 yesterday. All seemed to go fine (although IPv6 failed q...
The update seems to be just for the iPhone 16? The previous version was working fine for me, but updated anyway just in case there's something else. I don't actually have an iPhone 16.
Did a reboot cycle of router and both satellites. Appeared purple on the satellites for a bit, but then came back blue. Everything connected again.
I have two Wifi networks, one main WPA3-Personal and the other is IoT Network 2.4GHz only. No Guest Wifi network.
However, I noticed a new Wifi network called "NTGRBH_(numbers)" appear available to connect to upon wifi devices. It seems to be the Netgear backhaul connection? It didn't appear in previous versions of the firmware and I believe show be hidden?
Ya most of the issues seen on prior version of FW was with new gen Apple and Android devices and 6Ghz along with IPv6 and flipping back and forth on wifi signals. Was not seen on older gen or model phones and pads. I hadn't seen this either, however like you, I don't have a new gen phone. iPhone 12 Pro Max here and a Android Pad that doesn't support 6Ghz or WiFi7.
You should have 3 networks on Orbi AX, AXE and BE systems, Main WLAN, IoT and Guest Network.
The NTGRBH_(numbers) has always been there since the beginning. It's locked and not usable. Only for the RBS BH system. We've already asked about this early on, however, not sure if or when NG will hid that.

They closed the case and said it will just have to show, you can't connect to it. It's not new at least in some cases.
