Need to reboot daily.
I have had to reboot my RBR50 and RBS50 almost daily for the past few days to keep the internet reachable. Firmware is V2.2.1.210. Very straight forward config - daisy chain is off. Again, nothin...
I guess I will call this one solved. I downleveled the firmware, Netgear upleveled back to what had. The system seems to be stable again.
Please tell us more about your setup. Is Orbi in Router or AP Mode? What ISP modem are you using? Wired or wireless backhaul? What devices (wired/wireless) type do you have? When the problem happens can you login to Orbi? What is the status of the Internet Port when this happens (in the web GUI under >>ADVANCED>>ADVANCED HOME>>INTERNET PORT>>STATUS)?
Wireless backhaul, Netgear cable modem. Orbi is setup as a router. I have about 20 devices ranging from Samsung TVs, MacBooks, ipads, YAMAHA receiver, thermostats, light switches, etc. I can log into the Rbr50 without a problem. The satellite disconnects when this happens.
Will check internet port next time it happens,
- Thanks,
- Are you sure that the cable modem doesn’t have any router functionality?
- Which of your devices are wired to Orbi?- I am positive that the cable modem is just a modem and nothing more. Only devises hardwired are the cable modem to the RBR50 and the AV receiver to the RBS50. The AV receiver has not been powered on the last 3 or 4 times this has happened.

How do you see that the satellite disconnect? What about other devices, any device will loose wifi connectivity when this happens?
You have only one satellite, right? Is Daisy Chain enabled or disabled?

Can you please check what lease time your ISP has in the INTERNET PORT STATUS.
I see the satellite is disconnected by logging into the RBR50. Only one satellite and daisy chain is turned off. I have a second satellite ordered. A couple of devices do loose connectivity when this happens. I do not see lease time on my modem, but will keep looking,
