Im having issues with rebooting as well
Im having issues with rebooting as well. When I first purchased this in December 2023, the router was rebooting every hour. I reached out to the community here and got some help from a Senior Wireless Engineer. He provided me the BETA firmware V9.10.4.1_1.1.17. The made the reboots less frequent but its still rebooting. When it reboots, 50% of my devices arent responsive so I unplug the power cord and 50% of the time, it resolves the unresponsive devices.
I had the RBR850 set up before this one with now issues.
I see that now firmware V9.10.4.1_1.1.17 is on the Netgear website. SInce I have the BETA version, would any of you recommend that I donwload the one on Netgear in case there was a change between the BETA and the final one?

- This is the same released version I’m running and I’m still seeing reboots. Around 3-4 a day.
Any progress on this?

No progress. Netgear is still working on it. Last I heard 3 days ago was that they were still waiting on the engineering teams response.
But i did see that there is a new firmware out.....
New - RBE970 / RBE971 Firmware Version 9.11.0.1 Re... - NETGEAR Communities
Haven't tried it as its not showing up on my router so I may have to manually update it.......
Ok. Looking at the RBR data, Seems stable CPU and memory use wise.
03/10/2024, 08:27:09 9.03% 1124 MB/1743 MB 1 days 23:06:25
03/10/2024, 08:32:07 0 0 0 <<<I see where the reboot happened.
03/10/2024, 08:37:44 26.29% 1146 MB/1743 MB 0 days 00:04:35All usage seems stable at this point:
03/11/2024, 17:36:13 8.40% 1121 MB/1743 MB 1 days 09:03:01
However the RBS, I'm seeing a slow creep upwards in CPU and Memory usage:
Poll Time CPU Load Memory Usage System Uptime Hop Count
03/09/2024, 11:24:01 9.88% 606 MB/1743 MB 2 days 16:16:31 1
And ended up here with last test taken by tool:
03/11/2024, 17:33:23 10.15% 673 MB/1743 MB 4 days 21:25:52 1
And maybe still climbing.
Is this RBS wireless or ethernet connected currently?
