Did you apply and continue to use the orbi system or did you power cycle the system or factory reset anything? Did you apply the Fw update using Orbi app or the RBRs web page? 

 

Yes.

Yes.

I power cycled both the satellite and the router (at nearly the same time) since the update and after I started seeing problems.  My setup is fairly involved, so a factory reset is an option of last resort. 

 

As interested as I am in having the (unspecified!) security fix that was provided by this update, the issues that 2.7.1.60 introduced cause me to wait for the next update (which presumably fix these new bugs).

 

Thank you for the "Yes."  I'll get on the downgrade tonight.
