I recommend that when you factory reset the RBR and set it up from scratch. Set up minimal settings first. Don't enable Armor, Access Controls or SPC or Traffic Meter. Do a backup config to file here at this point. This will give you a base config file in case you need a reset and need back up and running quickly.
After you do this, then setup all the other features that you want. Make sure is working as you need too. Then do another backup configuration to file. Then you have a options config file in case a reset is needed later on.

I recommend setting a IP address reservation on the RBR for any devices that you use in the access controls and in the Orbi app to control block and unblocking of devices.
