RBK50 Pulsing White Forever Every Time When Power Cycle

Hi All!

 

From time to time my internet speed would drop from 400 down to 50 and that's when I power cycle the router.  Every time when I power cycle the unit, will just pulse white forever and I have to hard reset into factory setting.  I do not have all the time in the world to do this every month or every other month.  Anyone else have this issue?  I am on the lastest firmware.  TIA

    What FW is currently loaded?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the IP modem the Orbi is connected too?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the ethernet switch if one is in the configuration.

     

    How are you speed testing? Wired or wireless? Wired ethernet cable is preferred for speed testing.
