Suddenly none outside can reach my network (Orbi RBR50)
I haven't changed anything.
It's been so long. The only IP address I see when logging into the orbi is on the 10.*.*.* subnet which I know is private. Is my ISP failing to provide an externally reachable address all of a sudden?
whatsmyip.org gives me a real IP address, and the ORBI is registering that with my dyndns, but the status screen on my Orbi says this:
All attempts from outside now fail. Two days ago all was well.
This is resolved. The ISP switched me to a private IP and we addressed it with them.

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 edit out any MAC addresses from pictures for security reasons.
The ISP is Riverstreet locally. I can't make heads or tails of the small black box they gave me. I can't access it. But it's always just worked. It looks like a power adapter but has Ethernet in and Out.
All I can find outside is a line from the antenae into the house as ethernet.
Uploading a pic.
Looks like a POE adapter:

Does this connect to a ONT or ISP modem or just direct from the ISP?
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed since last update?
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
Turn off and unplug modem.
Turn off router and computers.
Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on computers and rest of network.
