Orbing stops sending wifi without a reboot?
The last couple of days we have awakened to find NO wifi signal coming from the Orbi. We have had the unit about 3 years. The unit is on, but doesn't broadcast a signal till I do a reboot. It is fed an incoming wifi to internet connection via a wireless antenna to a tp custom wireless router. That hasn't been a problem until now.

You might try updating the firmware. the most recent is the 2.7.1.60 version.
Update the satellites first and then the primary router.

when I check the firmware for updates in the admin it says there are no updates available for my unit. Perhaps my model number is older?
You can manually update the router and satellites.
sometimes the system doesn't auto-update.
