Orbi goes offline after unplugged wired computer
I have the Orbi RBK852. Base Orbi is connected to a switch which goes out to multiple wired computers and NAS devices. I recently upgraded my laptop from a 2019 MBP to the 2021 MBP running Monterey...
USB hubs have been known to cause problems. I presume the hub maybe sending some bad down the line when disconnected.
What happens if you disconnect the ethernet cable from the hub first then disconnect the hub?
Have you tried USB to ethernet adapters?
I have a few for my MBP on OSX 12 and don't see issues with these USB C to Ethernet adapters.
What Firmware version are you using?
