Orbi RBS/RBR 50 Version 2.1.3.4 and Apple homekit iDevices and Philips Hue problems.
I have updated to firmware version 2.1.3.4 and have noticed some homekit instability. I have several iDevices Switches which have become intermittent and no other changes than the router firmware. ...
Looks like the IPs I blocked were AWS so they change. I ended up blocking all traffic coming from the orbi AP IP.
I'm glad I found this thread. I was about to reset my HomeKit configuration which would have been a giant PITA. I have 40 or so configured accessories and since 2.1.3.4 they bounce between all available and all "Not Responding". As soon as I downgraded the router and satellite to 2.1.2.18 everything is working perfectly again. Hopefully we can make enough noise to get Netgear involved. If they won't revert the mDNS flood protection change we at least need an option to disable that so HomeKit can operate.
