    Tx for link to 40-system. Updated and all working well so far. Don't have a complex system though, only one satellite.

    My experiences upgrading to 2.1.4.10 from the recent 2.1.3.4 release was as follows. 

    • I used the Orbi app to request the update
    • Waited while the system was updated
    • Tried to open the app and it could not connect
    • Tried from my PC and the orbi login page would not operate cleanly... loaded once but really messed up and slow
    • Shut down the router
    • Pulled the ethernet wire out of my satellite
    • Restarted the router and system booted and connected
    • Checked the PC orbilogin, all looked good
    • Re-plugged in my ethernet cable to my satellite
    • System recognized the wired backhaul 

    All seems to be rock solid again.  Seems I have to remember to go back to wireless backhaul when updating firmware.  Hope this helps someone else.
