As you realize, this is totally unacceptable, unexpected behavior. My aging RBR50 Orbi has remained "up" for 108 days on Spectrum cable internet.
Could you do me a big favor and report what your router shows on the web administration Advanced Tab, when clicking on the blue box "Connection Status" inside the Internet box? Looking for the values of:
Lease Obtained
Lease Expires
Would be fascinating if the router loses connection about the time the lease is due to expire.
Thanks
Don't know if this applies to your model.
I just had this issue with my RBR850. Here is what happened and how I fixed it.
#1 cable outside my house was cut by lawn mower.
#2 2 days later cable company ran a new line to my house. Internet was back up and things were great. Then we noticed that now the router was rebooting on its own about every 2 or 3 hours. I tried everything to try and fix, update firmware, reset router, tried all suggestions on here.
The thing that ended up working was this. I noticed that the routers time seemed to be off by a few hours, I changed the time server to googles time server instead of Netgear. Bam instantly the time updated to correct time and the router has been online for 24 hours without rebooting.
