Orbi randomly stops traffic to devices
Orbi has worked great since I bought it a couple of years ago, but since about two weeks ago I’ve had problems. Randomly traffic all of a sudden stops going to devices, but any devices currently activ...
V2.7.2.104
My RBR50 is having same issue since 2-3 weeks ago. Is this related to newest firmware?
- I don’t think it’s related to the newest firmware b/c it started happening to me the same timeframe (2-3 weeks ago) and I was on FW v2.5.x.x.
I was hoping that updating to the latest FW would fix the issue, but it didn’t.

Thanks for including the link to the NTP discussion. I did have Traffic Meter enabled and disabled as suggested. Will report back if this solves the problem.

You may be correct. In my case I had just updated the firmware to V2.7.2.104 a few days previous to DST which caused me to think firmware as everything had been stable before. Interestingly, I never had as issue with DST change previously so jury is still out in my mind whether this is firmware or DST. I did disable Traffic Meter as per Bianca's suggestion in the Daylight Savings Time, NTP, DNS Issues thread that FURRYe38 linked. Fingers crossed.
Be sure to do a backup configuration on the RBR for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
