Satellite manually updated fine, but the router update doesn't work. I get the message
"Firmware file is incorrect! Please get the firmware file again and make sure it is the correct firmware for this product."

the firmware 2.2.1.212 prior to uploading the the new firmware. Did a full resedt and i too think my signal is less than prior. I need to do some some more analytics on this . My wife does a lot of zoom, and the drops keep locking her up. I have had 3 drops i know of since the firmware upgrade. I was asuured by a tech the firmware would cure the drops. Small home with 3 very expensive wifi, should be a breeze. Google wifi was better than the orbi. I am going to hardwire the wifes office, and if performance doesnt imporove scrapping an putting goole wifi back in. thanks for your efforts to help

Implicit Beamforming (turn off [explicit is better]. Not clear whether Orbi has explicit by default or not offered.
MU-MIMO (fine for most)
Fast-Roaming (turn off).
Note Ring 2 is 2.4 only no AC, etc.
Late to thread but distance/walls/floors between parts of your network?
