Oh please, before you go: please tell us the name of the competitor... What you say is what we all hope for in products we pay good money for. Even if they don't answer me outside warranty, I expect the product to work reasonably and for new firmware updates to not make things worse!!!

I'm tempted to give away the Orbi sytem for Halloween as a treat that's more of a trick!
I was able to add the satellite after rebooting both several times. My device list is still wonky. And I agree with you. If the update is released I should be able to apply it. That being said I have applied many since installing them and this is first time this has ever occurred.
