Orbi New Firmware 1.8.06

I have been a Orbi user since the first firmware release. It has been challenging ride. The product once working correctly, is better than anything else out there (I have tried every mesh system).  I just updated to firmware 1.8.0.6. I am happy to report that of the 56 various wi-fi devices I have, nothing is disconnecting (24 hour run). I also noticed that web pages under this firmware are loading much much faster.  I am running the Orbi in AP mode with a Verizon Fios router and Wi-Fi turned off and MU-MIMO turned on. I hope this is going to remain the final fix!

Interesting, especially since the Netgear guy here mentioned in another thread that they didn't address the disconnect issues with this firmware release.
