DoS and Reboots
Hi all,
Need some insight. Something I have never had an issue with before as started to peek with my new Orbi RBK50 system. I am frequently getting logs about DoS attempts, however, the router...

For sure, I had an RBK20W set before the RBK50. I never had any issues with it and have no doubt that if I had quick access to another set that it would be fine. Also, turns out that Target just let me return the product since it was 90 days within the purchase date. I did not want to ship it the device out at my expense for some amount of time. Rather, all Target had was the RBK20W in stock, so I just went back to that and saved 100 dollars. The RBK50 was truly over kill for my house anyway..I really wanted it for the upscale ethernet bridge over 5ghz :( ....can't really find that anywhere else that easy and price. It is for cameras. I ended up putting my 2.4ghz wireless ethernet bridge back in place to feed the camera switch. There just aren't too many systems consumer wise that have the dedcated backhaul. Thank you for your replies.

Possible you just have a bad system. The Orbi systems do work. I'm sure the RMA or replacement will fix this. Others enjoy there systems.
