Chief2019, I've seen some mixed reviews on this modem with a lot of reports of it dropping internet (Puma 6 chip set) I believe this modem provides both Internet and Voice - are you getting your voice service through it as well? If so, the next time your internet goes down, check your telephone service as well. If it is down (i.e. no dial tone), then it is the modem itself dropping, not the Orbi. I had this problem with a different Spectrum modem, but same symptoms.
