Aug 26, 2017Having received beta firmware for the Orbi, I can confirm you sign an agreement to not distribute.
1.12.0.20 was pushed weeks ago for the 40's not the 50's.

My system updated itself to 1.12.0.18. this is ridiculous. I've never had a router that auto updated.

The newer "wireless systems" like mesh systems, the orbi, etc. all do this. Standalone wireless routers generally don't. In fact, when you initially configured your router, you agreed that Netgear can upgrade/update your system without your permission. If you don't believe me *smile*, reset your router and satellite, and go through the initial configuration again, you'll see it there.
