New Firmware for RBS50Y Outdoor Satellite?
Running Netgear Orbi RBK50 with an additional new, RBS50Y Outdoor Satellite. RBS50Y shipped with firmware version 2.1.2.6. RBR50 and RBS50 units are both running the latest beta f/w 2.1.2.10. I've noticed that the RBS50Y unit works quite well upon being booted. Wi-Fi clients roaming is fluid between units. However, at some unspecified point, not long after the RBS50Y unit is powered on, it no longer seems to receive connected clients. I'm able to verify this by connecting directly to the RBS50Y via web browser. This behavior has been quite consistent since I've received the unit. While it doesn't appear to be rebooting (per the /debug.htm info), and remains connected with a GOOD 5G status from the RBR50 status page, clearly something is buggy about the 2.1.2.6 firmware. Is there a newer/beta firmware available for the RBS50Y yet?
