Try a full power OFF of the RBR and RBS and modem for 30 seconds then back on.

On my iPad devices for example, wifi is regulary disconnected.
Trying to reconnect leads to al long lasting attempt, and then the message that the password is incorrect.
When typing the password again the wifi connects as normal, and after a few days it occurs again.
Both iPad devices and Orbi have been reset several times, but no result up until now.
Any advice, eg. searching in logging etc. before completely factory resetting the device?
The last option would not be preferrable due to all the work to getr things back online.
Also the only moment to execute that would be in the middle of the night due to heavy usage of the devices.
Regards,

IF this does work, is it a part of the firmware update instructions provided by Netgear?
