Orbi generating a lot of ARP traffic on WAN
Using Orbi, I have problems being deactivated by my ISP due to too much ARP noise on the wan port. Reported this to support but no luck so far getting any help so wanted to see if anyone have similar...
V1.12.0.18 fixed the issue!
Thanks for adding your info and logging this with Netgear. Hopefully this will put some attention to the case.
I still have the same problem, now using V1.10.1.2 as well. I still have the case open with Netgear and they ask for more logs generated with their debug tool, but as this is only able to log around 10mins at a time it's practically impossible to catch it. I have provided a number of externally generated wireshark logs however that clearly shows the problem, but no one seems to bother about my case anymore at Netgear.
I'm stuck using the device as an AP (where it's doing an ok job)

Though for me raising the limit to 50 improved a lot. Before I had tens of disconnects per day. In the last few days I noticed only one, while using the network all day long. I'm using the Orbi as a router.
UnixGuy,
I had my connection raised to 100 ARP/s and that improved a lot again, but I still had a few very rare disconnections. Then I updated to 1.11.0.20 and I didn't have any in the last week. Can you maybe check the ARP traffic with 1.11.0.20? Also, it looks like a beta 1.12 is out. Thanks
