Drops network every 30 seconds for 5 seconds
My Orbi is dropping network connectivity for 5 seconds just about every 30 seconds. It's not exactly 30 seconds, but it does occur very regularly, definitely every minute. I'm on version 2.1.2.18...
Downgrading to V2.0.1.4 fixed it for me.
The UPNP setting appears greyed out for me, probably because I have the device in AP mode... :(
Downgrading to V2.0.1.4 fixed it for me.
And my Orbi rolled forward again to V2.1.3.4 and now it's broken again.
Going to roll back and disable updates.
NetGear, you're not very good at software!
I've been through your exact same experience. No one from Netgear has been able to address this concern directly. My permanent solution has been to rollback all the way to V2.0.0.74 and use my main router's firewall to block the Orbi units from updating.
What is the problem your having? Please give details.
Hard to know whats really wrong.

Have you factory reset the router and satelllites and set up from scratch, after the system was updated to v2.1.3.4? This needs to be done when using this version of FW.
