Orbi generating a lot of ARP traffic on WAN
Using Orbi, I have problems being deactivated by my ISP due to too much ARP noise on the wan port. Reported this to support but no luck so far getting any help so wanted to see if anyone have similar...
V1.12.0.18 fixed the issue!
For the record, I had my ISP increase DAI limit to 50 ARP requests per second and I didn't see a disconnection in the last few days. Before I had 5-10 each day.
Some more info:
- All of this still happens with latest firmware as of 18 June 2017. Router Firmware Version V1.10.1.2.
- I have definitely much less disconnects now, though I still had one yesterday. So yes, it seems Orbi can actually send more than 50 ARP/s.
- I also opened a case with Netgear, explained the issue and provided links to this forum thread.
- So, it's clear there's a problem and it's clear they know well. If this doesn't get fixed, it's either Netgear unwilling or unable to fix it
