Did you apply and continue to use the orbi system or did you power cycle the system or factory reset anything?

I had unusable wifi that would make my network crash as soon as I saturated my internet bandwidth or I was on too many devices at the same time, now with this update I can download and upload at full speed on as many devices as I want without any issue whatsoever. Manually updated satellite first then router, this is the best firmware I’ve ever used to date.RBR50 1st gen
Just downloaded it manually as soon as it was available and did manual update on web browser via WiFi starting from the satellite first. No reboot and no factory reset before or after, worked like a charm without going anything particular for me

I have two questions for you: (1) Do you have Access Control enabled? (2) Have you tried the Orbi App to view (and manage) attached devices?
Based on your "worked like a charm" comment, I'll be the answer is "No" to either or both of these (related) questions. I think this update broke this functionality (which matters to many of us).
Cheers!
