ORBI CBR750 requires manually releasing/renewing the IP

I have Netgear Orbi CBR750 with RBS750 satellite. I own this for two month now. Four days ago, it started dropping internet every 1.5 hours. Rebooting the router would bring the internet back. I ...

No, you have the CBK750 system which includes the CBR and RBS. All of which have a separate forum for. Please post there. 

The CBK and RBK are two different systems.

Please contact NG support and let them know what your experiencing as any fixes will need to come from NG.

There's nothing here in the forums we can do in regards to that. 

 

Thank you.

There are clearly issues with

  • CBR750
  • RBS750 (Does my thread not belong here)?

Secondly, the only solution I can think of is the firmware fix by Netgear - none of the hacks/tweaks work - they rather cripple capabilities.

FURRYe38 - Let's decompose RBK750.

Does RBK750 not include?

  • RBR750
  • RBS750

And hence, my issue in this forum?

 

Also, contacting Netgear Support will entail buying extending support, and at the end of the day 

Netgear Engieering/R&D has to deliver working firmware!!!

    You have the CBK system which comprises of the CBR and RBS. 

    All CBR and CBK which includes an RBS are handled in the Orbi with cable modem forum. Please post there and contact NG support. 

    We don't get if or when that will happen. You'll need to contact them.  

     

    Thank you.

    I had the same issue upgrading RBS to firmware version V4.6.7.13 and all hell broke loose!!! I too have CBR750 firmware version V4.6.5.8_2.0.54.

     

    I rolled back RBS to firmware V4.6.7.5. Now it is manageable, however nothing like the stability/performance I had August 2021, at which time Netgear introduced firmwares for CBK752 (CBR750 + RBS750) and every update after that is a joke, especially from the CBR750 + RBS750 perspective!!!

      im running CBK752: CBR750 on v4.6.5.8 and RBS750 on v4.6.7.5, so not quite sure about the requirement for both CBR and RBS to be on same FW. in fact, the prior latest RBS FW release was v4.6.5.14 which does not match v4.6.5.8

       

      has there been any stable beta FW released for CBR that effects intermittent wifi issues? I see there have been several more 1 star reviews posted on netgear.com with regards to the CBK752 atejwani

        The versions are not fully the same however are on the same base version: v4.6.5.14 which does match v4.6.5.8 and matters here.
