I bought RBK50 new 2 weeks ago. My setup is this: Internet-Cable Modem (Arris SB6141, Spectrum) + RBR50 in router mode (firmware 2.1.3.4 plus one satelite, same firmware version). I've always had internet connection problem since then.
First several days, I found very sluggish internet connection happens 10-20 times throughout the day. When it happens, the internet status is "detecting". In the log, there are a lot of DoS attacks happen at the same time as the sluggish internet. I disabled port scan and DoS protection. This problem mostly gone.
Still, after several days, I found "detecting" status and no internet again. This time, I found "NAT_rule_change" log associated with UPnP. Then I disabled uPnP. But the problem still exist. just a lot less frequent than before. I need to point out the I've never had any problem with wifi. Only on WAN port to the cable modem.
Anybody exprienced this? very annoying. My old setup with TP-Link routher and extender never had any connection issue.
Exactly followed the instruction and did the reset for both router and satelite. But I did not disable the "port protection and DoS attack" as well as the uPnP. Fingers crossed..
Please do a factory reset on the router and satellite. Set up the router first from scratch and walk thru the SETUPWIZARD while the router is connected to the ISP modem. You might power OFF the modem for 1 minute, then back ON before you start the reset on the router. Then, walk thru the set up wizard and set up SSID and PW for the wifi. Skip adding the satellite for now. Disable IPv6 if it's enabled.
Besure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. Don't use the in box cable that came with the Orbi system.
uPnP should be enabled unless your needing some Port Forwarding configurations.

If you don't want to RMA then just return it and go with a diffrent company
