Huh, looks like they did pull it. Did an explicit check for firmware update and it says none available.
Damn. Getting close to having to toss this in the trash an buy something that works. My wife is getting pretty pissed off about the bad wifi at her desk (which is why we bought this thing). My satellite has been a sitting doing nothing for weeks.

PhysicalEd so is there a newer Firmware about to replace what was just released already?

I don't know... By default I'm still stuck on the broken firmware. I have a support ticket open thanks to a 1-star review on Amazon, and they sent me a Beta software agreement, but I haven't gotten anything else about actually getting new beta firmware.

Regarding your orbi , did you do a factory reset by depressing the small button on the back of the orbis? After that navigate to the IP for the base directly , advanced tab and let it find and install the latest firmware.- PhysicalEdSep 17, 2017Star

Yes, actually I discovered yesterday that doing a factory reset of just the satellite got it working for now. It will die next time it reboots, but at least I didn't have to do the full setup wizard on the base like I did last time.
