What Firmware is currently loaded?
Swap LAN cables between the ISP modem and RBR.
Power OFF both modem and RBR for 1 minute, Then back on with the Modem then after, the RBR.
Has a factory reset been performed since last FW update?

I have noticed that periodically my modem lights indicate that the Orbi has lost its upstream channel bond. The Orbi does not correct this condition unless I reboot. Any ideas as to why this would happen?

Firmware is up to date (v2.3.5.30) and was recently reset without issue. Ethernet cable between modem and Orbi is new, but will look into getting another one. Beyond this, do you have any explanation as to why the Orbi would lose its channel bond? I'm trying to understand the logic process of the Orbi, which continually frustrates me, as I no one seems to be able to explain why the Orbi seems to have various issues that continue from firmware update to firmware update.
