ORBI
Any updates on how to help Orbi from intermittently disconnecting from internet? IT\ts terribly frustrating and completely unacceptable for a device to cost this much and have such poor performance....

Yes, you'll see two since the router and satellite broadcast wifi.
I would do this, turn OFF the satellite. Reset the router and set it up from scratch. Don't set up the satellite. Just yet.
Set manual channel 1, 6 or 11.
Disable MIMO, Daisy Chain and Fast Roaming.
Do some testing with your devices. You might add an IP address reservation one at a time as you conect them to the router.

How do I do this? Im not amazingly high tech with IT. Thats why its frustrating when you pay this kind of money for device and then have to work so hard to make it work.
Why would I have to set up individual IP addresses? I feel that dumping Netgear is going to be the end result. Its a terrible problem!!
