FIX - Orbi Firmware 2.2.1.210 Performance Issues
Hello Orbi Community,
If any of you are struggling with performance issues with your Orbi system that is currently running on FW version 2.2.1.210, you are not the only one. Countless amount of...
Some have said that they noticed the Daisy Chain issue as well. It's been mentioned that Daisy Chain has been working or the UI check box is doing the opposite of what it should be doing. Check mark means Disabled, Un-Checked means enabled. This may have been an issue that would need to be checked.
Ya I presume next FW upate all this will be fixed and should be a need to downgrade FW.
Others can downgrade if they want to. For some advanced users sure. For other non advanced users, maybe not so much. Just wanted to let you know, others are having good operation with there systems on v210.
Enjoy.
FURRYe38, yes I am aware that some do have their systems running fine on version 2.2.1.210, but for me it wasn’t the case. Thus, is why I was in a pursuit to rollback the firmware and figured it might help others who wanted (or needed) to roll their system back.
Take care! Here’s to troubleshooting Orbi. 🙂
FURRYe38, I tried disabling the daisy chain as I also saw the same theories you mention. Unfortunately, it only made things worse on my end.
Ok, Hopefully next FW upate will be good for you.
We just love to troubleshoot the Orbi. :smileywink:
Good Luck.
Thanks for this!
I'm sure 2.2.1.210 is fine for other folks, but I was getting constant random reboots on 2.2.1.210 despite hard resetting and troubleshooting.
I did manage to stop my Orbi from auto updating to 2.2.1.210 with this method and have been running stable on the previous firmware (2.1.4.16). Thanks!
My suggestion to Netgear still stands: please give us the option to turn off the auto update from within the GUI itself.
