Questions on configuring RBR850 Orbi router

Hi all, I was wondering if you could comment on a few questions I have on the set up of a relatively new Orbi RBR850 router with satellite. Everything is running well, and the speeds are great! I have 1 GB Comcast internet.

 

1. A simple thing, but every time I log into orbilogin.net to look at something, it makes me add my password again - even if I have checked the checkbox to save the password many times. Is this a bug or do I have something set up wrong?

 

2. I originally set up LAG successfully (CM1200 modem), but then I turned it off as I saw some posts saying there were "issues with the CM1200 and LAG". Is this old news and no longer an issue, or something I should avoid for now? 

 

3. Should I manually install the hot fix 3.2.15.32? The app updated me to 3.2.15.25. I didn't see much on what the hot fix was for.

 

Thanks for answering my questions!

What browser are you using? Try a different browser. Be sure the browser accepts the PW and stores it correctly.

You can if you like:

Manually apply if. If your system is working you can keep what is currently loaded as well.
