Re: I have spent weeks trying to get my pixel 8 pro to work on the orbi 970
Can anyone with this particular phone give feedback on weather newer FW fixes this or not?
970 series FW released to the public today: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi-WiFi-7-BE-Mesh-Systems/New-RBE970-RBE971-Firmware-Version-9-12...

Re: I have spent weeks trying to get my pixel 8 pro to work on the orbi 970
Just installed this FW yesterday manually. So far so good. Haven't seen any drops on my pixel 9 pro and pixel 9. Speeds are running normal and I didn't see the message "No internet connection on my ssid" when i move between router and satellite. Will observe for 1 week and get back to you with my final findings. Looks like NG finally fixed this issue once and for all 🙂 (crossing fingers)

Re: I have spent weeks trying to get my pixel 8 pro to work on the orbi 970
Hi folks after preliminary testing, I can say that I believe I have noticed improvement with the new beta firmware V9.12.5.305719_1.3.24. It still has issues handing off the signal to a closer satellite when on the outer range limits. I have to disconnect from the network and reconnect to connect to the closer satellite. I have at least been able to stay connected to the main network instead of only the IoT network. I also get better cell service in the winter and I recently upgraded to att 5 gbps fiber and could explain some of the improvement also. I get about 1.5-2.4gbps down and about 1-1.5gbps up on wifi speed tests if I'm in the same room as satellite or router. I will try a 2.5gbps ethernet to usbc adapter and will look into other 10gbps pcie options for my desktop. I may downgrade the fiber to 2gbps after a month until I can get those speeds on all my devices. I can stay connected to the main wifi network after this last firmware update so I think there has been some improvement. I will keep testing.
