Orbi satellite pinging: 1.0.254.169
Does anyone know why my Orbi is trying to ping: 1.0.254.169 and also why it is trying to FTP to Ireland at 52.208.82.166?

Orbi Hardware version: RBR50
Running firmware: V2.5.1.16
It is in access point mode
I have an enterprise network firewall acting as my router and is giving the visibility as to what the network traffic from the router is generated.
I am also seeing that there is a good amount of traffic going to AWS for a URL for IoT on port 8883.

Do you have anything connected behind the RBS?
Whois that IP address belonging too?

I keep trying to respond, but my replies are not showing up... the whois shows the IP is registered to Thailand it says it is registered to Dynamic IP Address for residential broadband customers

The AWS IoT traffic is going to the US AWS address space on port 8883
The FTP traffic is going to AWS address space in Ireland and is using default FTP credentials.
