Sorry you are going through this. Many people on this community forum have reported problems with the most recent firmware update, and Netgear appears to be no longer advertising it. Most people have found that downloading the 2.3.5.30 firmware from the Orbi support site, unzipping the files, and doing a "Manual Firmware Update" (back to 2.3.5.30) has resolved their issues.
Pain in the a**? Certainly. Better than having no WiFi? Alas, yes.
