FURRYe38 donawalt
I think NG did something “behind the scenes” yesterday afternoon. I thought NG might have pushed a firmware update so I checked my firmware yesterday, no change since I updated in December.
My Arlo Keypad, and all of my Shelly smart units dropped off my WiFi network and sent me Notifications (this had never happened before yesterday).
I checked the RBE971, the status light was purple or whatever NG calls it. Noting that color meant I had no internet connection (even though I googled NG site to see what purple meant thinking my iPhone had/would flip to 5G cellular during the “purple”, but my internet worked fine through the RBR WiFi and thru my ATT Gateway, my iphone never did flip to cellular).
The RBR light remained purple, so I power cycled my ATT Gateway. When it came back on line, the RBR remained purple. I went to Orbi app and performed a reboot. The purple status cleared up.
Maybe NG can enlighten us??
