UPDATE
My system had gone down at like 3:45 AM last Saturday morning and I new it was down but said to hell with it ....I am not getting out of bed to fix it, I'll do it when I wake up.
Next thing I know, it all started working again around 8 am.
More interesting is that my next door neighbor had been losing internet and I saw comcast there, and I have since found out that Xfinity told her that something wasnt right up on the pole and told her it could cause a fire- then the local electric company was up on the pole very shortly thereafter, and he said that whatever he was doing could have been related to it all. ( Iam trying to get details from my neighbor and will post if I get additional info that could be of any help to anyone)
Long story short, it seems like whatever they all did has helped my Orbi as I went and did a complete unplug of my Arris S33, then plugged it back in ( which previously would have been the kiss of death) it power cycled, came back online, and everything came back on and worked. Then to go a step further, I rebooted the Orbi system ( which has never ever worked since the day I installed the system over a year ago) it rebooted, went through all its stages and lights etc and then VERY quickly went magenta and then came back online, ALL BY ITSELF with ZERO interaction from me, no can't get IP address issues, no problems at all.
SETTINGS:
SIP is default setting (which is disabled on Orbi RBR750)
IPV 6 ENABLED
default IP pool 100-200
MANUALLY ENTERED IPV 4 DNS Servers for Cloudflare
1.1.1.1
1.0.0.1
Manually entered IPV 6 Servers for Cloudflare as well

If you need to know anything else let me know. I do thank you (everyone) for your help in trying to solve this.
Best Regards

Any updates on this?
Hoping to see if email logging helps with these reboots that your seeing,
Sounds like a possible issue between the RBR and your modem when this happens.
Can you get 2nd router on hand by chance, loan one from a friend or family member?
