Daylight Savings Time, NTP, DNS Issues
Something is going on with Orbi routers and NTP/DNS. Since the time change, many users are reporting issues with their DNS failing since the time change: https://www.reddit.com/r/orbi/comments/m...
I have the RBR10 - (RBK13) 3 pack from Costco, a Router and two satellites (Orbi).
Same issue, my laptop and phones won't stay on the network, constantly rebooting the router, laptop says DNS issues. will hope to be able to manually reset the DST.
Try DST and if your using Traffic Meter, disable that first off. Then re-enable DST. Also try a different time server as well. time.nist.gov as a suggestion.

Hi Orbi Commuinty,
Engineering was able to discover the cause of this issue and they are working on a fix in regards to the disconnections.
The issue comes from Traffic meter while daylight saving is enabled. The quick workaround is to disable the traffic meter.
To disable traffic meter:
Access orbilogin.com > go to ADVANCED Tab > Advanced Setup > Traffic Meter and uncheck Traffic MeterWe appreciate all your cooperation and patience working with us. We will provide update once we have the fix firmware.
Regards,
Blanca
Community TeamWent in to disable the Traffic Manager (Internet Traffic Manager on the Orbi rbr50?) and found it was never enabled, Yet, I'm still seeing the issue.
