RBR850 frequently issuing DNS REFUSED responses
Had the RBK852 now for just over a month, and have an issue I'll open a support ticket for. Wondered though if others have been experiencing anything similar. Basically and since day 1 after put...
Good Luck. This issue is resolved by the beta thats available.
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?

At least i know im not alone in this and was wondering what was the cause of all my random DNS issues. i suspected it was the router since its new but i did just move and while still google fiber, it is a new location. guess its the router. if i didnt need the coverage these 3 orbi's give, i'd go back to my trusty asus ax88u and merlin firmware
FURRYe38, for what it’s worth, I have: Xfinity with a MB7621 cable modem, with the latest NG firmware (as of 11/6/20) on the Orbi ax 4200. I also have a support case open. The workaround of bypassing this router’s DNS resolution works for my Windows PCs. It also works to replace the router function altogether with a different router, but that defeats the purpose of buying this. I’ve had both my old ASUS and Google routers working with this modem/ISP and it works fine. Retired_Member has identified the bug, so it’s pretty frustrating that we can’t get a projected resolution date from NG support. If you have influence with NG, it would be great if we at least got a projected date for a bug fix.
