With 2.1.4.10, Orbi does not know devices
I have roughly 37 devices on my network.
When I check the orbi console it tells me 34 or 35 devices. Then when I click on that icon I see ~19-20 devcies listed. Then I refresh the console and I get ~24-28 devices.
But I know that there are 37 devices.
Is anybody else seeing this?
And, please, don't recommend a factory reset to solve this.

i see this all the time...but the real question is..."what does this have to do with the speed(?) and function of your network? Does it work?

To me the issue is that I cannot be sure that I am not seeing dropouts. It is not comforting. Quite frankly when I see simple things like this not working it is an indicator of other possible problems. It is like seeing a roach at a restaurant- an indicator of how they view cleanliness.
fair enough...for me the dropout assessment is at the point of execution. Attempt to connect to Internet (i.e. laptop, IPAD, Iphone, etc) , if they work I'm fine, if not, i dig further. I don't put too much faith in the 'device connection list'.

Actually when I compare the list to what's happening with DHCP messages etc, it does seem what is connected was accurate as of the moment the list was generated.
I didn't use to have disconnect problems but I do now. It's mainly noticed when I'm trying to use my Samsung S8 as a remote to my Harmony Hubs. But I do also see an Iphone on the network cut in and out as well.
The hardware and concepts behind Orbi are great but unfortunately, they really can't seem to figure this stuff out over on the engineering side. We should be moving forward with features, not spending six months on these 'basic' items such as general connectivity etc.

It's flaky. I am looking at my video doorbell as I type and Orbi does not show it as a connected device. It works though so I don't really care.
