NETGEAR is aware of a growing number of phone and online scams. To learn how to stay safe click here.
Although automatic firmware updates should probably be the default, there should be a method (easily accessible in the firmware settings) to disable firmware auto-updates. The foregoing would all...
I'll propse an alternative to "disable auto-update".
It would be good if Orbi was smart enough to refuse a particular firmware version if the administrator downgrades from that version.
For example: fw .210 sucks, so I downgraded to .146. I wish the system were smart enough to automatically know to not auto-upgrade back to .210, and instead wait until a post-.210 firmware became available.
(I also wish that Netgear weren't pushing something as buggy as .210 in production. Given the magnitude of the problems, it ought to have been pulled from whatever system is being queried by Orbis looking for updates.)
