Still no problems with my setup; the 2nd satillite and the original pair are running fine. My ISP experienced an outage last night, but the Orbi stayed up. Unexpected bonus: With my old router, my Google Fi phones saw the wi-fi as up and did not quickly determine that there was no longer an Internet connection, so I had to switch them to data manually. With the Orbi setup, when the ISP failed, not only did the Orbi stay up and running letting my local WAN/LAN work, but Google Fi quickly saw that there was no internet connection through the Wi-Fi and transitioned to Data, and resumed Wi-Fi when the ISP outage resolved. On the other hand, the Orbi app didn't handle the outage well, and would not let me see device status; but I was able to see it from a WAN/LAN connected PC. I look forward to seeing and using the updated app and will have to test and see how it handles if I kill the connection from modem to router :).
