Having to reboot Orbi RBR50 Multiple times a day (No internet...Wireless Connects)
Firmware: V2.7.2.104
I connected to admin console: 10.0.0.0.1
So I have had my Orbi for a couple years and it has worked flawless until now. What started happening was, i can connect to wireless (or wired) but have no internet. First time i just rebooted, but it keeps happening multiple times a day.
A solution (maybe temporary) i have found beside rebooting is to change the "Internet IP Address" from "Get Dynamically from ISP" to "Use Static IP Address" hit Apply and then change back to "Get Dynamically from ISP" That actually allowed it to connect and work (using it as i type).
What i have done (not knowing if this will prevent future issues, is i have now changed it back to "Use Static IP Address" with the address that it received when it was set to "Get Dynamically from ISP"
Curious if anyone else has seen smilar issues?
Thanks

Seems like the .104 firmware has had many issues.
Some have found that disabling the traffic monitor and potentially daylight savings times fixes the issues.
Others have had to downgrade to the slightly older version of the firmware to fix the issue.
I notice you have a different IP address than default. Any issues with double nat?

I have had no issues with Double NAT. Wife and I use VPN daily, but are not gamers.

Just an update to this. Since making the changes i have not had to reboot my Orbi even once. Fingers crossed.
thanks,
