Nest issues much improved
I have an Orbi router and 2 satelites. 2 outdoor NestCams, 8 indoor NestCams and 2 NestProtects, all running on my Orbi network. Dropouts were an unexplained and repeating problem until about the time the new firmware war released. (cause and effect?) Things are much better now without disablin Beam Forming.
Someone asked if the firmaware up date helped. I cant find that postRE

Hello bs6mjb
I have no ETA on firmware but I do know that they are still working to make nest devices work better.

Re: Nest issues much improved
As soon as I enable Mu-MIMO and Beamforming, my Nest cameras start going off line

Re: Nest issues much improved
See my previous post. I just tried enababling Beamforming and MIMO on my ORBI with the router on the latest firmware. Within 10 minutes, my Nest cameras started going offline. It is NOT an issue as long as you DO NOT enable Beamforming and MIMO. Which honestly is dumb. We should be able to enable these two features.

Re: Nest issues much improved
I tried the latest 4.0.34 and soon after my Nest cameras disconnected, so no improvement for me. This is not surprising since the release notes don't say anything about it. I'm just leaving beamforming off and then no problems with my Nest cameras.

Re: Nest issues much improved
Issue NOT fixed. About 45 minutes after I enabled MIMO and Beamforming, the Dropcam cameras started going offline. Still waiting...... Come on Netgear!

Re: Nest issues much improved
I'm having this same issue with or without beamforming on my Orbi with two satellites. Happens to my Dropcam Pro camera, and Nest Protect fire alarm. This is unaccpetable. Just bought the router, and was enjoying it before seeing these issues, and may need to return.
