I changed it to 192.168.1.100 just for testing purposes and since it’s been stable, I didn’t want to change it back to the defaults 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1.

Sorry please be specific ... so the range you use is
192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.252? (ie that is the range that the Orbi can assign)?
Or you reduced the range to
192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.100?
Or you made the router's address 1.192.168.1.1
Thank you

From what I gather, "I changed my router’s IP address to 192.168.1.100" from what the user said.

Thanks. I made all the changes including chaning my IP address to .100
If this doesn't get fixed soon, my next change will be returning this POS Netgear product to Costco and getting something more stable. Beyond furious that Netgear would push this and then not have a way to downgrade without being forced to auto update. If they know there is a problem, they should put out a temporary fix. Eveyrone is working from home and having your network crash 5x a day in the middle of zoom calls is NOT acceptable for a $400 router. I get that things go wrong. All companies have these issues. Not providing a temporary fix OR allowing for a rollback (or an auto rollback) - well, I guess the lawyers can figure that one out.
