ORBI RBR50 Does not work w/Verizon 4G LTE Home Router

Another reason why I would not use Verizon internet unless I can use my own router and they keep theirs 

I would check with the ISP and there support service to see if there is any information regarding use of external routers with there hardward. Possoble could be some incompatbilies seen. Try AP mode on the Orbi system and use there router as your host router.

It worked for a few hours, but then started failing.  Right now I have all the ALG settings on LTE Hmoe Router disabled, DMZ enabled with the client being the RBR50. ORBI shows a good internet connection, but nothing can get there on wireless network.  It seemed to be working until I re-connected my Brother MFC-L2707DW printer.  I think that was just a coincidence because I could not get internet back even after powering it down and rebooting ORBI.   Since I have not cancelled my old internet provider I can switch back and everything works, so it has to be something with LTE Home Router.  I am trying to switch to the LTE service because it costs less then half what I pay now, and I will not have fiber for 18 to 24 months.

MSWENSON  Just to confirm, has your Verizon LTE router/modem been updated to the latest firmware - v204953? If not, then I'd suggest trying to update it as prior to this latest update, the modem/router would not work at all with the Orbi (at least not in a stable manner which seems to be what you are experiencing). 

If it is, then I don't know for sure what else to say other than reseting both the Verizon and Netgear devices back to their factory settings and starting over. That seems to have helped me finally be able to step into the correct settings on both devices. 

To those suggesting takling to Verzion support about this, they aren't any help. Me and MANY others have been asking them for help with this and they push us back to Netgear or Google (whomever is the manufacturer of the WiFi routers we are using) who then push us back to Verizon. Verizon has told us there is NO setting to put the router into Brige mode which is what needs to happen, but through turning on the DMZ and turning off the ALG settings, I seem to have gotten something that works like Bridge mode with the Orbi in Router mode. I didn't want it in AP mode as it kept me from using other settings I needed, and AP didn't seem stable with the verizon device either.
