Others have reported the Circle seems to cause problems.
Have you tired manually loading v210 FW on the router and factory reset and setup the router from scratch, then enable circle and see if the problem still happens?

I had the same issue since installing 2.2.1.210. I found the fix for me was to disable Circle, even though it is one of the primary reasons I chose the Orbi. I have not had a drop since disabling it and it’s been over a month now.

Thanks!
