Hi,
Thanks for the reply, I powered of both devices and powered back on the modem and let it sit for about 5 minutes. THen I powered on the Orbi. Unfortunatly about a hour or so later I expereinced the same 1-3 minute freeze up of my network. I don't see any error messages or anything that could lead me to the problem

What wired devices do you have connected to Orbi? Any wired mesh speakers (eg. Sonos)?

Well I have three unmanaged switches through out my home. One switch is connected to the hub while the other two are spread out in my home. I have a PC, some Amazon devices, two smart TV's and a XBOX unit. I have one switch dedicated to my home automation hubs (smarthings, Hue, and sonos). None of my Sonos speakers are hardwired.
