My ORBI disconnects everyday at the same time
I have a RBR40 router and a RBS40 satellite, the firmware has been update to lastest version:2.7.3.22. After update the firmware I have tried restart and reset the router and satellite already. ...
What modem/gateway is the router connected to?
The modem maufacotry is "FIBERHOME" and the model number is HG2821T-U.
This modem is Shanghai telecom standard model. At least 1 million user in Shanghai is using this modem
that modem has its own integrated routing functions and causes a double nat
A double nat happens when you cascade more than 1 router.

Fixes? There’s 3 options but only use 1.
1. Put the modem/gateway in modem only/pass through mode. This disables its routing functions.
2. Leave the modem/gateway in router mode but put the Netgears IP address into its DMZ. This forwards the data to the netgear. You can either leave the modem/gateway’s wireless enabled or disabled. Just make sure its using a different wifi channel to prevent interference
3. Put the Netgear into access point mode. This disables its routing functions. Wifi/ethernet still works but it does disable some features.
