Network keeps dropping wifi and forcing me to restart
I am on the latest version v2.1.4.16
My network is setup like so
Fiber Modem --> Orbi Router --> Netgear Unmanaged Switch --> Rest of hard wired network machines
This was working pe...
Yea I just reserved the IPs on the router itself one at a time. Restarted after the three wired machines were set and then powered everything off.
Modem: 844G-1
Wireless is disabled on it.
ISP is an Electric Co-Op
Ok, keep us posted.
Looking up some info on your modem...
Seens that your Modem/ONT has routing built in.

Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge mode. Then use the Orbi router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ for the IP address the Orbi router gets from the modem. Then you can use the Orbi router in Router mode.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the Orbi router to the modem, LAN to LAN and configure AP mode on the Orbi router.
Did factory resets on the satellite and router. I am still encountering this issue. I never had it before and haven't done anything new to the network since I set it up initially around July 13th.
I am also seeing a load of ACK Scans
