Like any network device, the Orbi ARP cache will be erase when the router is rebooted. (not Factory Reset. simply restarted)
Orbi routers remember every MAC address that has ever connected. These are recorded in the tables found in the Orbi web interface, Advanced Tab, Security Menu, Access Control. Devices that are not longer using those artificial MAC addresses can be erased from the bottom two tables on that page. May have to scroll down to see the bottom two tables.
Orbi remembers even if Access Control is not enabled. In order to modify those records, Access Control has to be (temporarily) enabled. Then disabled again after the tables are cleared.
