WOW, this morning about 2am i decided to update my two ORBI RBS satillites first. and that went ok, till a fantom ORBI showed up in my Orbi App. i then proceeded to update the RBR750, that went well till it said it was online but it wasnt. i followed the directions according to Furrye38, (ty) and i unplugged the sats and then the router, waited 2-3 minutes then i plugged in the router and then the sats and waited........it took a few minutes and the router came online then the sats followed. it still took some time for all my devices to get back on line (about 60), which is normal thing that has been happening. then today was the test. we had some heavy thunderstorms roll in, these south florida storms alway knock out some power or damages some weak transformers to were the power goes on and off real quick. it happened 3 times in a half hour i also have the comcast modem and the RBR750 plugged into a surge and battery back up. the weakest like here is the sats, no battery-back up for them and they used to take forever to re-sync but after the upgraded firmware last night, WOW, the ORBI's came right back online which shocked me, i thought i would need to reboot the sats. but no input from me and the whole system came back online quick. i am no IT guy here but this is a major inprovement from the previous firmware that almost killed the ORBI system. thanks to all here on this forum, i have learned alot from here.

Sadly the thing that bothers me the most is when the bots (i'm beggining to think they are indeed bots) in this forum keep trying to waste our time with tests they already know are a waste of time. Same thing when you contact the NG support. The units are not faulty, there's no point in sending them back or running 3h of tests. Just admit the dream of some genius that wanted to bundle too much crap in the same devices is not doable by your present dev team. At least the core funcionalities should work. Save everyone a lot of trouble and just halt production and recall the devices. You'll maybe have better luck next time and maybe the customers will forgive you. This is beyond a train wreck. It is now a nuclear disaster. I already listed my orbi, hopefully someone needs some High tech paper weight. Good luck to you all.

One thing to add that the previous firmware 2 ago worked perfectly and the device worked perfectly. Assume that the firmware update was for security patch to something they found
Would be funny if it was for improvement of service as so far has been totally the opposite effect lolololol
Have to add that it is good for new joiners to this chat to provide them known workaround that they can do on their own and all the hoops they can jump through. If they want to do it and all the power to them and I wish you the best of lucklol
But not for me lol as the time per hour I would
Charge anyone and the cost of the router means I would be loosing even more funds lol
Hope we get a easier one step none coding workaround/ fix or a firmware that works lol
