What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Is the Orbi system operating in Router or AP mode?

as of late, my satelite keeps re-assiging IPs - over and over again, at least thats what it looks like on the logs. as a result, the two devices that are connected through ethernet cables keeps dropping connection - everytime i lose connection, i check the logs and sure enough, DHCP IP assignment. 1 is a desktop and the other is a Aruba VPN Switch that i use for work. i even reserved the Aruba to an IP address x.240 but it continues to happen. updated all my firmware, currently V2.5.1.16. reboot many times, only thing i havent done is factory reset, which wont do any good because it'll just reupdate the firmware right? i am getting really frustrated with this issue. please help. any idea why its doing this?
i've not noticed any devices connected through wifi drop connection. is there a setting on Orbi that i can extend length of when it does this madness?
