I purchased my system (RBK850) and immediately had connectivity issues. Once I thoroughly read these forums and all the attendant issues with the latest firmware, I put my old RBR50 back into play and boxed up the RBK850. I was going to wait until Netgear released a newer firmware, but having seen that this issue has been ongoing for the better part of three months, I sent the unit back for a full refund.
I tried everything here short of placing a firewall in front of my network to block the firmware update. The thought hit me that I spent way too much money to be monkeying around, hence the return for a full refund while I still could.
I went out and purchased the Linksys Velop mesh system. It just works.
The good people on here who help others, Furry to be specific, I appreciate. I might be back once this sad affair has been rectified.
Cheers!
