ORBi not showing connected devices

Hi, my Orbi is still not showing any connected devices, will Netgear put out a patch to this anytime soon?

Re: ORBi not showing connected devices

Please try a factory reset and setup from scratch with the RBR and RBS. If this fails, downgrade to v30 version of FW.

Re: ORBi not showing connected devices

How do I downgrade? Any why is Netgear not addressing this as it seems to have been an issue for some time now?

Re: ORBi not showing connected devices

Download the FW files for the RBS and RBR. Apply the RBS first then the RBR lastly.

Not everyone is having this problem. 

Something to contact NG support and let them know what your seeing:

Re: ORBi not showing connected devices

So if not factory reset, what can I do to make it work?

it's probably firmware related.

 

have you told us about your firmware, as in what do you currently have, last update, etc?
