New Orbi firmware 2.1.2.18 update issues?
I noticed that there was a new firmware version 2.1.2.18 for Orbi RBK50. Has anyone installed this version, and has there been any issues after the installation. Please provide any details that you...
I couldn't find a way to edit my previous reply, but this turned out to not be an issue with the Orbi firmware update. My latency problems were caused by my ISP (Com Hem Sweden) temporarily disabling its native IPv6 support. This caused Orbi to start using 6to4 tunneling and the latency introduced was from my ISP's 6to4 tunnel, not from the Orbi update. I disabled IPv6 support in Orbi's settings for now and the latency went away.
Glad you figured it out. Thanks for letting us know how you resolved it.
Enjoy.
