Chromebook unable to resolve domain names

I have hard rebooted and powerwashed my Asus C302 Chromebook, I have rebooted my Netgear Orbi router and installed updated firmware.

My Chromebook connects to my RBR50 router and even can get out to the web for a moment before it becomes unable to resolve any domain names or IP addresses.
I realize this may be at the router and not the chromebook level but I'm at a loss after having done an extensive search for answers online.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

  • What modem are you using?

    What firmware is on the router?

    Are any of your other devices having this issue? which one's?

    Does it work if you hardwire in the chromebook?

    have you tried changing the dns provider? you can switch from the isp supplied one to googles (8.8.8.8   8.8.4.4) or cloudfare's (1.1.1.1) and see if it helps.
