I am having the same issue. We’re you able to get it resolved?
The work around is when I put my router to AP mode, use static IP instead of dynamic. After servers days the magenta light still come on (meaning router can not obtain IP) but my internet works fine. At least I don’t have to reset it.
I have my orbi setup as normal and I still have to reset the wifi often (wired continues to work). All firmware up to date.
What channels are you using?
What ISP mfr and model# modem do you have connected to the Orbi router?
Any wifi neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Try manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Disable MIMO, Daisy Chain and Fast Roaming and see how this does for you.
What is the distance between the router and satellite?
