There is an issue with wired backhaul in the latest software.
Please follow the steps in this post as a workaround: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi/Wired-Backhaul-in-recent-firmware-releases/m-p/1783871#M67538

I would try a factory reset and setup from scratch if FW was updated recently...

Please test the Orbi system directly connected to the ISP Modme with out the DGS-1008D switch in the mix. There are known issues with switches that have Green Ethernet features. Not compatible with Orbi.

Hi,

Symptoms:
- drops wifi now and then - especially to iOS-devices
-”wrong password to network” -message —> right password does not help
-restart orbit helps

System, AP mode:

1000/500 fiber —> Ubiquite EdgeRouter Lite (os 2.0.6) —> Dlink DGS-1008D switch —>

Orbi RBR20 , FW 2.3.5.26
Orbi RBS20, FW 2.3.5.26 via ethernet

I have a feeling that this started when the FW was updated to this verision.
Thank you for your help & ideas.
