Android/iOS App won't looses connection to RBR850 (RBK853) starting with Firmware 3.2.15.25
The web gui works perfectly the entire time. The connected devices work perfectly as well.
Any suggestions?

I haven't see this with mine. Iphone 6sP and Galaxy Tab S2.
RBK853 in router mode.
Was a factory reset and setup from scratch performed since last FW update or just update and continue.
I had done a reset on mine to help check a different item since last FW update.
Saw no Orbi app issues while mine was in router mode.
I'm updating to v32 today and will check the app again.

Did a factory reset (although philosopically it makes little sense that a product would require this with each routine FW update), but did anyway, and problem still exists. I went back/forth to the previous FW a few times and that always resolved the problem. Something happened with 3.2.15.25 that makes the App not able to see the RBR853 after a few hours. (1) doesn't happen immediately, (2) I'm in AP mode, (3) it happens both on iOS and Android, and (4) the Web GUI works the whole time, even when the App doesn't see the AP
(oh, issue with V...25 and now on V...32 as well. Full reset, same behavior after a few hours)

Re: Android/iOS App won't looses connection to RBR850 (RBK853) starting with Firmware 3.2.15.25
What is the Mfr and model# of the main host router in front of the RBR850 in AP mode?
I know last time I had mine in AP mode connected to my CAX80 in router mode, the nighthawk app was not able to connect to the CAX thru the Orbi in AP mode, I was able to in v15.25 If I remember rightn
I updated mine to v32 today and both iphone and adroid app sees the RBR, however mines in router mode.
I'll keep checking mine this weekend.

You might change the RBR to router mode temporarily to see if this changing anything...
I'll try mine in AP mode this week and check as well.

I have the exact same issue, exactly as you describe. After about six hours, I can only connect from the IOS app via Anywhere Access. If I reboot the Orbi, the same cycle starts over. I can connect for about 6 hours, and then the app will no longer connect.

I went through all the same steps -- factory reset, reverting to last FW, resetting router, etc. The same thing contineus to happen. After about 6 hours, the IOS app can no longer detect the Orbi and I have to connect via Anywhere Access.

I upgraded my iOS and Android Apps and the problems seems to have disappeared. What Android App version are you on?

I am using the up-to-date version of the IOS app. The problem remains. Perhaps an app update for IOS is coming soon if the Android app has been recently updated.
