It's a firmware issue that affects all users running these Orbi AX in router mode.
Not to put a tinfoil hat on. But it's really strange that a user with no real posts. Post a comment regarding this issue. With an immediate thumps up from Furrye38 (who seems to be working for Netgear).
Netgear should fix the Firmware / DNS issue. They already did it for the Orbi AX pro series one year ago.
Stop this nonsense and fix the Firmware.

You can see from my other posts I am not a fan of Netgear anymore (never buying a Netgear product again). That being said, I never experienced the DNS issue except for a couple of times that I'm not 100% sure if that what it truly was. I switched to AP mode after my Asus router because of Orbi's truly s*cky controls, QOS ability, and the fact that I'm not going to pay Netgear for services that I can get for free with my Asus (AiProtection - parental controls are free too, but I don't need that). As an aside, no DNS issues with my Asus router.
