Let me give you a quick update. We've been following this and other threads on OrbiOS 2.1. There are 2 issues that we're tracking
1. Attached Client Devices aren't showing up correctly on the right Orbi. For the most part, it shows the devices are attached to the Router, even though they've roamed onto a Satellite.
2. The Attached Devices page isn't being populated. To clarify these devices are still connected through the Orbi to the Internet. The issue is that the UI isn't representing it correctly.
We've got a fix that addresses these issues coming soon. I can't provide a date right now due to corporate policies, but soon.

I’ve been EXTREMEMLY tolerant and helpfu over the past year. After month of problems things finally improved. On 2.0.74. And now 2.1 is back to bad completely. I get home and the first thing the daughter asks is if I can fix the WiFi. She didn’t even have a clue anything was upgraded but certainly knew it was bad. And the icing on the cake... I read this thread and product management only acknowledges user interface related issues ..,, are you kidding me?We bought these damn things because they were supposed to help with connectivity and bandwidth. What we’ve gotten is a total headache. Costco is usually decent about their returns I’ll be talking with them tonight.

I’m in the UK, what alternative systems have people thought of moving too?
I want Eero but not available yet in the UK. Google Wi-fi doesn’t do Bridge mode in Mesh mode. Anyone tried Amplify HD?
