Netgear ORBI drops when wired to PS5 and XboX
Happens every day Ps5 is wired Firmware is the latest v 2.7.2.102 Modem is ARRIS SURFboard SB6183 PS does not have WiFi broadcast It also happens with the Xbox which is also wired. Any he...
Is the consoles connected to the RBR? Even though there turned off, they maybe still semi on as some have a low sleep mode. Xbox has intstant ON. Not sure if PS has anything like this.
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
I shut the systems off completely to make sure that the rest modes on both consoles weren't the issue.
I did do a factory reset since the firmware but thought maybe i should rename the network in the event that there is a ghost in the machine - so that all of my devices don't automatically reconnect when the systems come back online?
I have the RBR, the RBS and the wall plug in in the baby's room.
I unplugged everything and was having some issues with the RBR connecting to the RBS yesterday initially. I'm assuming I have to do a reset on all three? and then plug them all in in the same room?
(Ive never had an issue with this system, ugh)
So the RBR is failing or stopping even with out the consoles connected?
Well you might downgrade FW to v16 load just the RBR, factory reset and setup from scratch. I would turn OFF the RBS's and just run the RBR alone to check for any failures:

I will try to go backwards to 2.5.1 but for how long? I won't be able to get much of a signal in the back of the apartment :(
Just see if the RBR fails at any point with out the consoles connected then With the consoles connected. I would power OFF the ISP modem as well for 30 seconds then back on after you do the factory reset.
Don't enable Armor or Circle.
Might tune the RBR using following:
