Orbi RBR20 won’t hold connection
We powered down the ORBI RBR 20 and ISP modem to reconfigure our office. Prior to this, it worked great. After restarting it, it repeatedly looses internet connection. I also downloaded a firmware update this morning, not sure if that helped or hurt.
I’ve rebooted the ISP modem and Orbi numerous times and it doesn’t fix it. Please help??

What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too? Lucent-Alcatel. Modem unknown. It provides Cox Gigablast internet
What the modem and RBR disconnected and reconnected during the office change?yes everything was disconnected and reconnected
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update? Yes attempted twice last night but no change and appears to not have taken the reset.
FYI I’m going to attempt a firmware rollback in a few minutesId power OFF the modem again while doing the FW update and then power OFF the RBR as well. Then power ON the modem then RBR.
Enusre the lan cable is good between the modem and RBR. CAT6 is recommended. Make sure the plugs are seated well.
