Need to reboot RBR50 every couple of days

[markgriffith11]

My Orbi system is having issues maintaining optimal speed. I have a 300+Mbps tier from Xfinity. The speed performance over wifi noticeably decreased to less than 50Mbps by the satellite. What seems to fix the issue is rebooting the router. The Wifi speed returns to over 300Mbps  for several days. But invariably, it doesn't last. Several days later the speed will drop and I'll have to reboot the router again. Is there any permanent fix for this?

What Firmware is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?

What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router

What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?

Try enabling Beamforming and MIMO(MIMO may or maynot be needed) and WMM. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings

Try disabling the following and see:
Armor, Circle, Daisy Chain, Fast Roaming, IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).
