I'm no tecchy, so I really need to know where to find the logs for the orbi system so I know what is at fault, the orbi or my internet connection.
Netgear provides 90 days of "complimentary support" with the purchase of an Orbi system. There is a link on the product registration page to "Contact Support". Since you paid for it, that is one possibility to consider.
Orbi "logs" are not part of the Orbi "app" interface. There is a debug facility on the Orbi web interface which produces tons of information. Whether any of the data is relevant to your situation is a question better addressed by Netgear support. I just produced a debug file from my Orbi while researching a different issue, and the quantity of data is overwhelming.
Disable daylight saving in settings and there will be no more dropouts.
Hmmm haven't seen this with mine. Daylight savings is enabled. Could be something else...that is effecting DST...
I just checked my settings and the Netgear had the wrong time for my location.
Literally, Netgear don't know what time it is :-)
I am too much of a realist to suppose that setting the right time will fix all my problems, but alas one can dream.
Is DST enabled on the RBR? Time zone set correctly?
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
