Yeah, I know how to work around it, but a bug is still a bug 🙂 I'd rather reboot weekly in this case.
Also the combination of Orbi in AP mode + CenturyLink router is not something I like. Orbi in AP mode requires the upstream router to respond to ICMP pings otherwise it will reboot endlessly. And interestingly, on the CenturyLink router, there is no way to enable LAN-side ping without also enabling WAN-side ping (it's all under the "stealth mode" option - it's all or nothing). And I don't really like having my router responding to pings from the internet.
