What Firmware is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
There was a known issue a long tmie ago about Orbi not working power power outages. NG had fixed that. Not sure if this would be the same. Let us know if this is what your having problems with. Hopefully we can help you on this.
