Hi and thanks for the quick response.
The manufacturer of the Mfr seems something local but the model number written is FD600-504G-HR220.
When i power off the modem and the router there is another issue - the modem is back up in 1 min but the router says there is no internet. This deters me from turning off the devices as it takes 3/4 attempts to have the router working. the router and Mfr is connected by wire.
My ISP told me that changing the WAN would only be a temporary solution. They are suggesting for a factory reset of the Orbi.

Can try a reset though I doubt this will help.

See if your ISP can change the WAN IP address on the ONT. All this is coming in from the WAN side.
