RBR50 looses internet connection
RBR50 with firmware 2.7.4.24 and 3 RBS50 and 1 RBW30 satellites looses internet connection intermittently.
Local wifi and satellites works fine but the router just stops to be connected to Internet. LED indicator turns PINK.
Reboot and power off doesn't solves the problem, Only a reset on router and a fresh installation of router brings internet back.
Problem started September 6'th and has required a hard reset and installation approx once a week. Previous years very stable without problems.
No changes in ISP configuration, excellent support with no problems identified. Fiber. Internet phone on separate IP works well, as well as temporarily switching to a Netgear Nighthawk router. The problem seems to be with Orbi RBR 50 router.
Any suggestions? Any changes to settings? Firmware problem?
Thx
