Re: High Data Usage with Orbi
What Firmware is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
What devices do you have connected to the Orbi system?
Might enable Traffic Monitor and set a stop limit to see if it's coming from a connected device on the LAN side or the Orbi itself...

I have traffic meter on and during the night saw 5GB download and 10GB upload.

Re: High Data Usage with Orbi
Id be curious if you still see this happening after doing a factory reset and setup from scratch. Just set up a new different SSID name and PW and maybe do this right before bed time. Don't connect any devices to the new name and PW. Leave them all disconnected over nite. Disconnect any wired devices as well from the RBR. Turn OFF the RBS(s). Just leaving the RBR and ISP modem over night and come back first thing in the morning and check data UP and Down. If you don't see anything from this over night on the RBR, then I presume that something else on your network is causing this.
Let us know if you do see data still happening or not.
After checking, set your SSID and PW back to what you had been using. Then try configuring Traffic Meter using this:
