RBR50 Looses internet

I have 1 RBR50 and 3 sats. The RBR50 is connected to a NETGEAR 4G LTE modem as the main internet source. All works fine normally. Speeds are good also. Daily however the RBR50 just disconnects from the internet and I get the purple light. A reboot of the RBR50 sorts this. I am sick and tired of rebooting the router. Ive paid a fortune for this system and it goes off daily. Utter crap. V2.5.2.4 is installed. I have Armour enabled and the following settings.

 

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

    What netgear 4g lte modem?

    Many of them have their own integrated router and can cause a double nat.

    Sadly, not all lte modems can be put in passthrough modem only mode. (because of the isp like att/verizon/etc)

    This can make it so you need the orbi in access point mode which disables the armor/circle functionality.
