Frequent disconnects since latest update (SXR30 & SXS30)
Since the latest firmware update 4.3.4.200, my Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Router frequently disconnects and I can no longer access my SXS30 Mini Satellite. Any suggestions? I have switched to 5G but it has the same issues.

Does the front LED on the SXR turn pink when this happens?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.How many RBS are deployed?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?What is the distance between the router 📡 and satellite(s)🛰️? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR 📡 and RBS 🛰️ to begin with depending upon building materials when wired or wirelessly connected.
