Anyone else want a refund for the Orbi that Netgear is slowly bricking via Forced Firmware?
So in the past day since updating to the latest firmware, my devices are losing connectivity 2-5 times per hour. What in the world did you guys do? Send out firmware to basically brick our $400 router? I have spent too much time wasted trying to get my Orbi router fixed in the past few days, than all my other routers in the last 15 years combined. I would just like a refund. I feel like you guys are purposefully making this router worse with each and every firmware update. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one that wants a refund for this router, that was once the best to being a pure joke. Even your app seems to be glitchy as ever lately. Can we all get a refund please?
Orbi and BitDefender does what?
System wouldn't let me put in my Orbi RBR50...plus two satellites. Anyway... got this big announcement about Orbi and BitDefender.... what does it do in the router? I am familiar with bit defender in my PC, tablet or phone... but what does it do in my router? Does it maintain a blacklist or use heuristics to identify bad things or what to defend my Ring, foscam cameras, printers etc? There is absolutely NOTHING about what it does and how it does it... i get a free month of what? It told me device by device as it found everyone on my network, hurrahs... but nothing about setting up a profile for a camera, a printer or a Doorbell. Anyone got a URL of what this is And why I should spend $$$ per year? I already have anti-everything that I like on all my devices, so I don't need another partnered license for something that's not as good as what I already have.
