Orbi RBR850 DHCP issues

I have an Orbi RBR850 Wifi 6 mesh system with 3 satellites using an ethernet wired backhaul.  I have netgear GS108 switches on the LAN as well.     Starting a couple of weeks ago, I could no longer...

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

 

How are the RBS connected to the RBR, directly behind the RBR or thru the switch?

    Thanks for the quesitons. I'll get the data and share it when I get back home after the weekend.  The satellites are connected to the orbi directly through ethernet (there are no switches in between).  The switches are connected to the satellites.

      Another suggestion would be to setup some IP address reservations for the RBS and your devices. 

      I would also make the default IP address pool smaller as well. I set mine to 192.168.#.100 thru.200. Since I only have about 30 devices. Still leaves plenty of room for more and then you have room for static IPs on either side of this pool.
