Thanks again for your patience.  Whatever the problem is, we can be certain that it is not connected to DHCP lease time.

I cannot think of anything that would cause the Orbi WiFi to stop.

 

Any time a system has been working fine for months and suddenly begins to behave erratically, we always ask, "what changed?"

Message #1 said this has been happening "ever since the latest firmware update".  This firmware became available April 13, 2021. Do you recall when the Orbi firmware updated?
