RBR50 - 2.7.2.104 firmware - Issues?
To whom it may concern, FURRYe38: After upgrading my firmware to 2.7.2.104, I have been having issues. Devices successfully connect to the Orbi, but have no internet. If I reboot the Orbi and ...
Understand. However the one main issue with Orbi AC was Traffic Meter seems to have been the cause of some users problems. This was ackknowledged by NG recently. They also have a beta build for those users who want to try it. Again this is only for the Orbi 50 series.
If your having problems with the Orbi AX, I would suggest posing in the Orbi AX forum and get help there for that system. Others are seeing some problems in DNS. Some are not. There maybe help for you yet in that forum

Just commiserating within this thread that I had to go out and spend over $700 to fix the problem as I couln't afford the down time anymore. Constant reboots, experimenting with turning features off/on.... I might return the RBK852 and reinstall the RBR50 as the RBK852 didn't really do anything for my overall performance (just helped with reliability).

I wouldn't use the word 'some'. More like LOTS of users.
Same issue, started with no DNS and the best fix to date has been to turn off Traffic Meter. What had been a flood of [DoS Attack: ARP Attack] from source: 192.168.1... (the internal network) in the logs betwen one or the other satellites and one or more devices has calmed but not disappeared.
To trigger an "attack", all I need to do is suspend my laptop for a few seconds (10 - 20) and then wake it back up. Network performance crawls. Disabling laptop wifi and re-enabling stops the cascade. There is a delay but ARP Attack shows up in the Orbi log with the correct timestamp. All devices reporting current with patches.
Moving devices more prone to disconnect / reconnect onto the Guest network also seems to reduce impact.
Hope the steps to reproduce might aid in a permanent fix. I do have Circle enabled.
Circles been known to cause problems as well. There a long thread regarding Circles past experiences. Disable Circle and check.
