Thanks much for your response. Current Firmware is as follows:
-- RBR50_RBS50 - V2.5.2.4
-- RBS50Y - V2.3.5.32
No I have not tried to disconnect 1 or both satelittes. But the same condition has appeared on both ORBI networks (ORBI68 in LI; ORBI97 in NYC)
Interesting too is that a 2nd computer (Dell XPS) "shows on the network, but neither my wife's Lenovo X1 nor my Lenovo X1 "show" on the network. Yet, both computers have no problem connecting to the internet via the ORBI network.
What I have noticed is that if one tries to perfom a "troubleshooting" on the wifi of my Lenovo X1 it only offers the chance to connect to my workplace via Direct Access (which I have never had).
Is this any help?

Theoretically yes. I download the drivers again and tried to reinstall, but got a message saying my driver was up to date. The laptop wifi modem is an Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265.
