RBK752 - AX4200 doesn't rejoin the internet when the internet goes down.
Couple times a day I lose the internet. When my music stops I'll load a page and more often than not I get 'Could not find DNS server'. I'm convinced it's my ISP dropping service for whatever reason....
No, I don't think it's dumb to segment your guests traffic with 2 routers vs. depending solely on the Orbi's built-in guest network protections. While Double NAT can cause issues for some setups, particularly with some games and such, many people do run with it just fine. Your setup should still work and hopefully your Orbi upstream disconnects and reconnect problems are not just due to Double NAT.
However, to verify if the Double NAT is the cause you should try removing it and see if that resolves what you're experiencing. That experiment can prove if we should look elsewhere from Double NAT for your issue.
Also this:
The RBK752 sits behind a Motorola modem/router combo. About two years old. Docsis compliant. It's that router that I have to reboot once in awhile.
