Has anyone trying to get link aggregation working tried with the recent firmware version 3.2.16.6?

At the top right of orbilogin.com. I have not tried LAG yet, I am waiting to see if it has stopped degrading with others who reported it on this thread.

No, thats not the FW or modems web page for the CM1200. Thats the Orbi FW.
You need to log into the modems web page at 192.168.100.1 to find the modems FW version. Not all users have a Orbi system connected to the CM1200 modem.

- DirtyPatriotAug 17, 2020GuideNo improvement after initial firmware upgrade however a few days ago a update was pushed to my router rbk852 and so far I have been seeing stable speeds via LAG 1200down 42up. I'll run another test tonight to double check.

Oh I know that. I was thinking a new router firmware update might have helped, since it is the modem and router working together to make LAG work? Or is it known to be a modem issue and I missed that?

The LAG issue was with the modem only, didn't matter what router is connected. Thus we ask about FW about the modem and not router FW. IF there are any udpates to the modem FW, then this is what should be posted.

FYI: The CM1200 firmware has been updated from V1.02.02 to V2.02.05 by Comcast (see this thread), which may assist with the reported link aggregation problems.
