Before doing the reboot, can you look at the Orbi log file to see if there is anything about the internet connection in the log?
See page 97 of the Orbi User Guide: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RBK50/Orbi_UM_EN.pdf

What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and Orbi system been performed since last update?
