What happens if you disable Armor? Been some posts in othre forums about Armor causing some problems.
I don't run Armor and have never seen any issues with my 8 series Orbi system, v25 and now on v32 FW.
Using default CTS values now, not 2347 and AX mode is enabled. System has been solid since v32.

It happens 3-4 times a day now, and when I check my hardware, neither my router nor my cable modem indicate any problems - no lights are active or blinking as if a problem was present. If I do nothing, the connection is restored after 1-3 minutes.
I have an ARRIS SB8200 cable modem and my Internet service is 300 Mbps through Shentel. Firmware version is V3.2.15.25_1.3.15, which it has been since the beginning. I purchased the 3-pack (1 router/2 satellites) and installed it on the day of delivery, which was May 26th. The dropouts became apparent about 3-4 weeks ago; prior to that, it was working seamlessly. I've done a total reset and reconfiguration once, not because of the dropouts, but to register the RBR850 router with my Netgear Armor subscription. I have one unit at different levels of our split-level home.
I hadn't considered the possibility of the Armor feature being the problem. I should look into it and see if it makes a difference.
