Any thoughts on what else I can try? I agree it's losing internet connection. Was saying I don't believe it's losing connection because it's losing its DHCP lease. The DHCP lease seems fine.
Like I previously said, only the Netgear Orbi loses internet connection. Every other device connected via ethernet to my Verizon router retains internet connection. So this is localized to Orbi.
