Orbi RBK50 disconnects Internet for a few seconds

Since 2 days my internet is dropping for a few seconds and restoring again afterwards. Orbi turns purple every now and then for a minute or so. Log says:

Just updated from 2.1.4.10 to to 2.1.4.16 but that didn't help.

Beamforming, Fast Roaming and MIMO are all OFF

 

ISP is Belong (Telstra)

Model is a Sagem F@st 4315 in Bridge mode from Belong. 

 

Any ideas what's wrong and what I can do?

  • Any wireless neighbors near by? If so, how many and what channels are they using?

     

    Try a ERASE and set up from scratch on the orbi system.

      not really. Checked but only 1 on 2.4GHz very weak on CH12 and I'm on CH01, and nobody on 5GHz. 

      But what has Wifi to do with it if the Orbi looses Internet connection?

  • If you had many other wifi neghbors near by, this could cause this. Thus reason for asking.

     

    Try a ERASE and the Orbi system and set up from scratch...
