FYI,
With firmware V1.12.0.18 when Implicit BEAMFORMING - Boosts WiFi speed, reliability, & range for all mobile devices is enabled, my satellite disconnects and will not work at all. I've tried a factory reset on BOTH the Orbi router and satellite. It says the sat is detected, but will not activate after the setup procedure.
Turn this setting off and all is well again. That was four hours of my life that I won't get back again. Needs a revised firmware version.
