Note for those with RBS-50s attached via ethernet!  

 

If you have any hardwired RBS-50's attached to your RBR 850, you must power them off before any firmware update attempts will be successful. 

 

Once firmware update is complete and rebooted;  Repower yoiur RBS50s.

A Big Negative here too. Tried Chrome on Android and Waterfox Classic, Vivaldi and Safari on macOS 10.14.6 (Beta Security Patch). Can't use Chrome on desktop, Orbi IPA is not HTTPS secure.

 

Looked at the Support Page, No Joy.

Thanks for this tip!  My Orbi AX offered to upgrade to this new firmware version and I did it this morning, shutting down my RBR50 during the upgrade.

I think this is a great idea and will help with compatibilty.  I turned off AX for my older 2.4Ghz devices but can keep it on for my fancy new 5Ghz devices.

Same update rolled out to my RBR750 and so far it looks like it might include the NAT Filter Fix.  Both my Xboxes were showing as Open NAT with a Full Cone NAT at the same time.  I'm not getting Double NAT issues anymore either, so I'm cautiously optimistic.  Waiting for my buddy to test some multiplayer out.

Yup, NAT Filter is Open, and looks like both Xbox are using different Ports.  Still holding my breath on this one, but this is the first time I've been able to get Open NAT on both systems and Full Cone NAT on either.

Oh Happy Day! Maybe some relief now?! Since m'Lard (intentional) is Happy to be able to play games by himself, wink, wink and leave us peasants alone. For a bit or until he gets beat . . . himself.

So got about 35 minutes of Xbox Live in with no issues.

Firmware V3.2.16.6_1.4.4 seems to have potentially solved my issue, I’m cautiously optimistic. Still need to test with my one buddy and Breakpoint.
