I just manually updated the RBR850 to FW version V3.2.15.32_1.3.25
I have my satellite disconnected and powered off completely until I fix this.
Power cycled everything, Orbi still will not recoginize my internet connection.
Switch back to my Arris mAX Pro, everything is fine. I'm at a loss.

Ya, something is wrong with the RBR. Please made contact with NG support on this.

Netgear wants me to pay $50 for a three month support contract to troubleshoot this, saying my RBR850 is working fine.
- MeGrimlockAug 11, 2020ApprenticeIf anyone at all has any idea on this please let me know. My RBR850 is essentially a brick right now. If there are any official Netgear moderators, your help is appreciated as well.

A couple of shots in the dark:
- Disconnect power from Orbi and let it sit before repowering
- Try a different port in back of Orbi when repowering
- Try a different cable from Modem/Fiber
Does your LAN still work properly when powered on? (e.g. can you see local devices?)
I wonder if -- for some reason -- your provider has blocked that connection by MAC? Is there a firewall you can check in your provider's equipment?
