Orbi App and orbilogin.net stop working
Current set-up:
- RBR850 Router
- RBS850 Satellite - Wired Backhaul
- RBS850 Satellite - Wired Backhaul
- RBS750 Satellite - Wired Backhaul
- RBS750 Satellite - Wireless Backhaul
My system is working great. But in the past few months I've ran into the same problem over and over. Out of nowhere, the Orbi iOS App hangs on the Detecting Product screen and then kicks off to the WiFi Not Detected screen...depsite being clearly connected to the Orbi Network...all network functionality working great. Whenever this happens if I try to login to orbilogin.net it just hangs and refuses to load. In fact, right now it's happening and my laptop is hardwired to a satellite (which is hardwired back to the Router). Still won't load even when hardwired. Note that when this is happening my entire network is operating well. I'm not noticing any performance issues. Devices are all connected (usually have around 60 devices).
If I reboot the RBR850, everything goes back to normal. App works and orbilogin.net loads fine. It will work for a few days. Then invariably the above issue happens again. Because the system is working fine, I'm not quite sure when this happens (I don't check the app daily) but this has happened at least 4 times in the past month.

Had to go reboot in order to answer your questions!
Firmware: 3.2.18.1. No updates available
Connected to Arris SB8200 (running Xfinity Internet)
Over the last month I've had to power cycle the system numerous times to get the app/orbilogin.net to work. And to reiterate, the actual network is working fine, just need to reboot to re-acquire access to the app/site.
Armor is not enabled
Have you tried accessing 192.168.1.1 instead of orbilogin.net?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last update?
