I can confirm that the Verizon update today fixed the issue for me. I am on .18 Orbi (not beta) and I didn't touch settings. Just disconnected from guest Network and connected to main. Been stable and fast for a few hours now. Will report back on thread if things change.

My S8+ is working rock-steady on the main non-Guest SSID now too after the Verizon update today!
- StkasmAug 30, 2017ApprenticeMy VZ S8 seems stable on main network after that update. I cannot reproduce the issue anymore. Hope it will stay this way.
I'll keep monitoring but it's good news. - JMU1998Aug 30, 2017Luminary
On my Samsung Galaxy s8+ today I went into "Settings" then selected "System Update" it said new update available I downloaded and installed it and so far no drops yet in wifi on phone, will monitor only been a few hrs since update. Have verizon phone.
- spinkickAug 30, 2017ApprenticeI've had no problems with the S8 since the update yesterday. I wonder what they fixed?

spinkick good question no idea what they fixed the release notes are kind-of vague nothing explicitly points to wireless or wifi fix, it is one of them magical "fixes/enhancements" that Firmware addresses but no one knows exactly what it is...for me it is working now so happy it was really frustrating drops in wifi constantly on the phone...fingers crossed!
