I recommend opening up a support ticket with NG support and lets start giving them more information and ask about RMA options. Only thing I can think of is that this RBR maybe faulty and no mater FW version, needs to be replaced. 

Agreed.  Now what would be the best way to do this as I know Fernando, one of the engineers at Netgear, is watchng this thread and is that has been helping me during this time including giving me all the beta firmwares.

FYI RBR just rebooted again

Ya I sent him this as well. 

Just to confirm you had done a full on factory reset and setup from scratch with the beta FW? 

I'd at least get a ticket open and get something started. I just had someone PM me from Feb and said was having bad issues with there 970 series, got an RMA and they are good now. So I'm wondering if yours maybe faulty out of the box like there's was. I told the user to ask about a cross shipping RMA where NG could send you a RMA unit while you hold on to the original unit, gives you some time to test out the new RMA unit. If all is good and the RMA works, then you have to send the original unit back to NG. 

I think this would be worth getting that started while you and Straq continue on this original unit. 

Ive done a reset a few times....but not with this most recent beta firmware

That would be one last try I guess. Full on FR. If it still continues to reboot, let NG and Straq know. 

I will attempt to do this before I leave out of town.  Ill be away for about 2 week.

👍

Any progress on this?

They sent me a new router....but still old issues.  Its still rebooting.....at least based on the logs.  Stability is a little worse too.  Running the newrouterstat and newsatstats debug tools again

Have you been updating the support ticket on this? 

What FW version is on the newer RBR? 

I have...every move.  I have the latest 9.11.1.1. or something like that.  They wanted be on non-beta firmware

Ok, only other idea would be to put a Fan under or on top of the RBR. I see that a couple of other users posted about seeing connection issues at the RBR and after putting a fan on top, seemed to have stopped that. Have sent this to NG as well. 

Understandable. 👍

FYI, new FW available:

https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi-WiFi-7-BE-Mesh-Systems/New-RBE970-RBE971-Firmware-Version-9-12-3-3-Released/m-p/2382005/thread-id/1932

Damn I didnt see it this morning.  Ill look for it when I get home.  Is it manual or through the Orbi interface?  Also I read the release notes, but do you know if this FW is supposed to directly correct the issue Im having?

I don't know for sure. I'm hoping it does for you.

I would personally recommend manually:

https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi-WiFi-7-BE-Mesh-Systems/Procedure-for-Factory-Reset-of-RBE970-series-systems/m-p/2359584/highlight/true#M996

Download the files to a wired PC, bring RBS to same room or near RBR. Use MS Edge browser. Follow the PDF I linked.

Power cycle the system OFF and beck ON. Observe. If you continue to see behavior, FR and setup from scratch and check again. If still there, let NG know thru your support ticket. 

So updated the firmware at 20:00:00 or somehere about there...and here is the log file right before and after.  CPU Usuage just skyrocketed.  I just now placed the fan on the router.  Im not sure that this is due to syncing between the router and SAT but this is over an hours since I installed the new firmware.  The highest its EVER been is 12% ( with the replacement router).  It was always under 11% with the original router.  And I did do the firmware manually and rebooted everything.

Yes that would be expected to see higher than normal CPU usage while the system is settling in. 

Be sure to power OFF the ISP modem, RBR and RBS for 1 minute then back ON in same order. 

Give it about 10-30 minutes then check CPU usage. Should be low values by then I would presume.
