Orbi excessive pinging
Does anyone else see their Orbi satellites doing excessing pings to the default gateway? In my firewall log I am getting thousand of them and I don't know why. Or where to disable it. Joe

I just noticed this too. Disturbing and it's not normal. This needs to be fixed.
Did it get fixed in 2.5.1.16?

Somthiing to try for your self and see. I recommend a factory reset and setup from scratch. I would ping test with out the RBS and ALL other devices disconnected from the RBR. use just a wired PC to test with initially.

I was hoping to find out from someone already running the later firmware whether the ping behavior was still exhibited. Seems like a reasonable inquiry. Are you running the newer firmware FURRYe38?
