Thanks for letting us know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Enjoy.

Sorry if I’ve missed something similar in all the many messages but I just got this from Netgear support - and for the moment I’m stable :
If I may suggest, please try to perform a 30-30-30 reset on the affected units and then re-sync them together again.
If the problem persists, we encourage you to perform a 30-30-30 reset on your Orbi. It is highly recommended that you use a timer or make sure to count exact 30 seconds for each process.
For your reference, to do the 30-30-30 reset, please follow the steps below:
1. With the Orbi is plugged in and powered on, depress the reset button for 30 seconds. This button is usually a tiny dot recessed into the back of the Orbi. You may need a jeweler's screwdriver or a bent paperclip to access it.
2. While still holding down the button, unplug the Orbi from its power source for another 30 seconds.
3. With the reset button still held down, turn the power back on and hold for another 30 seconds.

Like that's going to repair poorly coded and QA'd firmware.....
The new routers arrive today. With wired backhaul, I expect it'll work out just fine. At the very least I can control when the firmware gets pushed.
That's really the thing that pushed me to dump netgear across the board. I had a perfectly stable network, but wasn't asked, notified, or allowed to control when/how the upgrade happened. That's not acceptable. Full Stop.
