Orbi RBR750 - scanning attacks?
Hi everyone, thanks so much in advance for any assistance on this. I have my Orbi AX4200, been set up for a few months. I have upgraded to the v4.6.3.7 firmware, and I'm aware that a few problems are...
Thanks so much for your reply! So the ISP doesn't provide anything, but here in Australia all HFC connections get this thing called the NBN connection box, that my Orbi is plugged into. Here are some details - https://www.commander.com.au/sites/default/files/2018-12/nbn-hfc-user-guide.pdf
I'll try your steps, what is SPC so I know not to enable it?
Ok, no router at the modem.
Keep us posted...
Thanks, sorry I'm not sure what you mean by no router at the modem. Isn't my Orbi the router? I'm not an expert with this stuff :(
Also with regards to your suggestion about disabling Armor and seeing if it happens again, how would I know if it happens because Netgear Armor is supposedly the thing that sends me the notifications on the app?
Aside from all this, any theories at this stage? While the outages are annoying, it doesn't bother me as much as not knowing. Is it likely just a false positive, any similar behavior like this? I know the latest Orbi firmware seems to have some issues. Thanks!!
Review the RBR logs on it's web page...
Hi, I'm not sure what you mean by this? Which logs on which page? I included an image in the first page that shows logs, which doesn't have any information.
Any progress on this?

Hey, no real progress in the sense that I never found any information. In the logs, it showed nothing, no dropouts or reconnections or anything. Same thing, just "attack" then the internet drops. No information on the attack, no change in the devices wifi logs, or the admin logs.
