WOW, this morning about 2am i decided to update my two ORBI RBS satillites first. and that went ok, till a fantom ORBI showed up in my Orbi App. i then proceeded to update the RBR750, that went well till it said it was online but it wasnt. i followed the directions according to Furrye38, (ty) and i unplugged the sats and then the router, waited 2-3 minutes then i plugged in the router and then the sats and waited........it took a few minutes and the router came online then the sats followed. it still took some time for all my devices to get back on line (about 60), which is normal thing that has been happening. then today was the test. we had some heavy thunderstorms roll in, these south florida storms alway knock out some power or damages some weak transformers to were the power goes on and off real quick. it happened 3 times in a half hour i also have the comcast modem and the RBR750 plugged into a surge and battery back up. the weakest like here is the sats, no battery-back up for them and they used to take forever to re-sync but after the upgraded firmware last night, WOW, the ORBI's came right back online which shocked me, i thought i would need to reboot the sats. but no input from me and the whole system came back online quick. i am no IT guy here but this is a major inprovement from the previous firmware that almost killed the ORBI system. thanks to all here on this forum, i have learned alot from here.

So you think the middle RBS is the one with the problem? Does the problem seem to follow this one RBS?

btw, i did now another test. as mentioned i have 1 rbr750 and 4rbs750. Before i had 1 satelite and behind them 2 others.
2x rbs---->rbs----->rbr. now i replaced it so that i have max 1 rbs behind another rbs (rbs----rbs----rbr)and since some hours it s working fine. Before all hours the one rbs in the middle was restarting.

i replaced this one with another but after a while the same problem occurs again. i also did a wired connection from rbr to this rbs but the it occurs again. since i have now 2 times rbs---rbs---rbr it s fine also the roundtrip over the last hours are much better.
before i changed it tried also to get log files out of it (via debug.htm) and i saw when the problem happend there wasn t only a connection lost the complete satellite was crashing (uptime)
