    Do wired devices have internet? Or is it only these pads that have problems? Any other wifi devices exeperience problems?

      I have wireless- wired into rather Orbi . We had a professional set up last year a modem (NetGear) with the Orbi 

      Comcast said my modem needed replaced too slow, they recommended Nighthawk CM2000

      i did step by step like the Comcast said, plugged into Orbi 

      I did not have to put the password information the nighthawk anywhere. 
      I have to reset everything a few times a day because it says offline. It's only been since Friday, I haven't used the computer. Phones even said not internet connection.

       

       Orbi app under WiFi settings should it be nighthawk or Orbi.

        Sounds like it maybe a orbi system problem. 

        You'll need to wire connect a PC to the modem to see if the modem works there or exhibits any problems first. If it doesn't then your next step is to review the Orbi system.
