Today I feel total relief. I returned the RBK50, got a total refund and installed my old ugly, no-app, rock-solid AC3200 router.
Could not imagine a product that flawed would still be in the shelves. Good luck you all with future firmware uppdates and endless discussions what equipment this malfunctioning piece of garbage is,connected to :smileylol:.

This is the issue of the ISP Lease time that was introduced few months ago in Orbi.
Reducing the ISP Lease time should solve this issue.
Reducing the ISP Lease time can be done using the following telnet commands:
>> config get wan_lease
>> config set wan_lease=1200
>> config commit
Good luck.

Thanks ekhalil , that might be useful information for troubled Orbi owners 👍.
For my part, I now enjoy two weeks of uninterrupted and trouble-free up-time with a Unifi Dream Machine from Ubiquiti :smileyhappy:.

- From browser go to the router's debug page (http://192.168.1.1/debug.htm). Use your router's IP address or http://orbilogin.com/debug.htm
- Enter admin as user name and your router’s management password
- Tick "Enable Telnet" option
- Use Telnet from a computer attached to Orbi to connect to your Router telnet 192.168.1.1 and enter admin and the same password as above
- Enter the following commands:
- root@RBR50:/# config get wan_lease — Should give you --> 86400 as default
- root@RBR50:/# config set wan_lease=1200
- root@RBR50:/# config commit
