Thank you for your patience,

Netgear pushed software v4.3.16 to my Orbi RBK752 early today. The version on the website Firmware Downloads page is still the older version v4.3.7. I don't appreciate having software pushed to my system that isn't even on the Downloads page. First impression is that the device disconnect problem seems better, but it is too soon to be sure. I had already used the 2.4GHz power reduction trick (lowering 2.4GHz power creates less of signal overlap with the router and satellite and definitely helped my problems with v4.3.7). The router internal speed test seems better (used to top out at ~600Mbs) but still does not reflect my full Xfinity gigabit service capability, which used to benchmark using the internal test around 1.2Gbs. Now the internal test seems to tap out in the 900Mbs range. I will test at a later time in the event there are some network load issues.
Do a pull power OFF of the system for 2 minutes then back ON. Include the ISP modem/ONT in this as well.
