I have made sure my firmware is up to date and have unplugged my Orbi overnight.
It is several years old now, so I am wondering if that is the issue. We have been considering purchasing the outdoor satellite, but don't want to spend the money if my whole system is going bad.
I'd appreciate any suggestion. I typically can follow diretions but am not highly tech literate anymore!

Yes, sorry I didn't reply I haven't been able to get onto my computer time-wise. I called my cable company and had them bridge my modem and it is working great now. It hasn't dropped since then. Thank you for the suggestion!
