Just saw this post, so my Orbi had been working just fine for last year or so. Ever since this update my wifi keeps dropping and its an absolute nightmare. I cannot revertback to the old firmware as its V3 on netgear website. I've posted my issues on anohter thread.

What problems are you having?
Have you contacted NG support yet?
Some speed issues are known to NG and are effected by only the built in speed test app on the RBR and the Orbi app. Using external speed tests apps are reported to show to spec speeds.
7 series users are encouraged to contact NG support and ask for the beta that seems to be being offered up.

Did not contact support since they want $$$ just to take a call.
I'm measuring speed with the Ookla speed test app on iphone and on direct connected laptop to router.
I'm having to reboot the router nightly; devices using the satellite to connect - both wired and wirelessly - are seeding 20 / 30 meg downstream as opposed to the 650mb that the router is reporting or that the direct connected laptop shows (approx 550 mb)

It IS FW and NG is aware.
