Orbi disconnecting from modem when I turn on my TV and tivo
Ok. This is very strange. Every time I turn on my TV my internet drops out. I can still connect to the orbi but i cannot get internet access. I checked my modem and it is still connected to the intern...
Try the following:
1. Set a static IP address for your Orbi (if the IP is currently 192.168.0.3, just set it for that and take DHCP out of the mix); and
2. Go into your Spectrum DOCSIS Modem and set a DMZ for the Orbi.
See if that resolves the issue.
I have seen the DHCP-counter get confused with the Orbi--I set mine as a static when I had that issue (albeit on an earlier firmware).
.mws.
+1 from my side
I had my primary orbi turning magenta ( lost of connectivity with adsl router : internet provider)
My internet provider router was also rebooting randomly sevral times per day, it was not having such behavior before Orbi was plugged in my network.
After assigning a static ip to Orbi primary router, and affecting on internet router the same static IP lease for it based on orbi mac adress, i do not have any issue at all.
internet router is not rebooting anymore and orbi connectivity to internet is stable.
