you may want to consider rolling it back

kindly point me in the direction of the steps to roll it back? at this point it can't hurt as my connections continue to get "interruptions". thanks!
Update: I have optimum coming to install an UBEE modem/router combo that has an internal switch. From here I hope the ability to hard wire work computer directly to modem will prevent the work computer from going offline during these hiccups. My goal would then be to use my ORBI as the router and enjoy the speeds and great range. if the technician at my house won't help with the ORBI side i'll be back to this forum for the great advice you all offer.
If anyone has experience with using the UBEE (UBC1322 or similar) along with the Orbi RBR50 please send me your thoughts. thanks!
