Re: ERROR: NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID
I have the Orbi RBR50 and am experiencing the same, when I switch to my T-Mobile Home (redundant/backup) WiFi network, I can connect again immediately, switch back to Orbi and I can't get to the websites again. Doesn't matter what browser I use (have 4-5 installed), same results. Reboot everything and it goes back to normal. One thing to note is that some other devices like my Rokus seem to remain connected when this happens, so I don't know if it is my computer or something else.

I am testing, simply "forgetting" the WiFi connection and reconnecting to the SSID, to see if it helps. As soon as I did so, I was able to reach websites, I'll have to give it a few days to see if the problem recurs.
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?Be sure to disable any MAC Address randomizers on phones and pads while at home:

It is probably clear to you what "experiencing the same" means. It would be helpful if you could be specific about which websites return this invalid certificate error.
