Internet connection disconnect intermittently for sometimes
My internet connection disconnect intermittently sometimes. It disconnected for 3 sec and will automatically connect to the internet soon. May I know how to fix this problem as it already been a long time since I first use the mesh wifi on April this year.

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?Try disabling the following and see:
Armor, Circle, Daisy Chain, Fast Roaming, IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Set Short preamble instead of Long preamble modes. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).One User Experience/Configuration:
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update? - MstrbigMaster

Do you have just the one Orbi router or satellites as well? Is it the WIFI disconnecting or your Internet connection? How is your Orbi router connected to your ISP modem/router?
- I have one router with two satellite. WiFi disconnecting intermittent for sometimes. For example, when I’m watching any movies (it can be surfing website too) with any devices, it will cut off the WiFi connection for few seconds and connect back within 10sec.

(modem, router, ONT), did they provide?
What is the current firmware on your Orbi device?
What device is your Orbi router connected to?
Have you changed the network cable connected from the ISP device to your Orbi router?
Are your satellites wired or wireless?
