RBR50 'losing' PPP device
I've had my RBR50 for about a year and it's been working great. Yesterday, I started losing my internet connection (I am not sure why but this is not my top priority right now), and was unable to rec...
Well if the Orbi in the AP mode then there shouldn't be any issues no the RBR as any PPP would be handled by the upstream router or ONT. Any internet traffic in AP mode on the RBR is just passing thru on the RBR in AP mode.

I would set a static IP address for AP mode ON the RBR that's outside of the host routers default IP address pool.

Yes, this is what I am saying - the Orbi in router mode loses the connection and cannot reconnect without a reboot. An alternative router I have does not do this.
