rbr40 with.58

I have an rbr 40 with 3 rbs20, a rbs50 and outdoor satellites. Since I downloaded the firmware 58, I have been getting all sorts of dropping issues. All the sats are wired except the outdoor. The fire sticks are wired to the orbis or direct to the switch which is fed by the rbr40. The TVs will periodically freeze, the computer in WiFi will lose internet for a few minutes . The iPhone takes 2-3 minutes to connect to the WiFi, one of the wired sats shows disconnected sometimes and sometimes connected . Most downloads are slow or disconnect after a time out.The amazon echos sometimes are ion and sometimes off. The haiku lights won’t connect even though they were connected before. When I do a speed check on the internet it is fine 16 up/down, but not getting to the equipment though the orbi router. I’ll be connected to the WiFi but sometimes when I try to get into the orbi app it says I’m not connected even though i am. Very confusing seems like the rbr40 router just can’t dish out the signal properly. Thoughts ? And for a plug and play high end system Netgear really dropped the ball. Imagine a car, appliance or tv operating like this all with 90 day support

Try a factory reset and setup from scratch...
