Obri RBR50 Default Gateway and Invaild IP Config issue that only lasts minutes at random times
We have had an Orbi routing for a little over a year and things have never been perfect but at least before now the annoyance didn't lead me to post on a forum. Recently a problem that cropped up tha...
After a month of trying everything under sun, I finally call the cable company to see if they will come out again. They decided to redo all of the connections (Im not sure what happened during the first visit) and the problem has seemed to finally cease. I wish I had a more exciting conclusion, but fingers crossed it stays fixed. Thank you for time everyone.
Thank you for the quick reply
I ran the command prompt right after the internet seemed to come back up, if this doesnt give the info needed, then Ill try to be quicker on the draw (attached image).
The Firmware version is V2.5.1.8. After the factory reset I did a firmware update.
The last question did bring back a memory of when I was first setting it up, its acting as a router, but the modem we have is a Netgear N600 Wifi Cable Modem Router Model:C3700. I remember disabling the router part of the modem, but could that possibly be where the problem lies?
Your C series modem should be bridged if you use the Orbi in router mode. This would be your main problem to correct first.

I combined the two screenshots I took together, and I beleive these are the right settings. But of course now the problem has stopped and I havent been able to recreate it. This mimics the first time it happened. It went away for for 6 months before popping back up again.
Thats the configuration you need.
Try powering OFF the modem and RBR for 1 minute, then back ON with the modem first then the RBR next time this appears.
Also try a factory reset on the RBR.
There is newer FW available as well:
