New RBK50/53 Series Firmware Version 2.7.3.22

Update from me on this firmware. After using sometime I was getting rpoblems with wired devices. These devices did no longer get connection. Power cycle of the (non managed) switch resolved the issue. Howerv it returned then suddenly I noticed that my Andorid S10 phone (latest firmware) did no longer get good connection to the Wifi (no internet and no data).
Switching off router and satellites did only fix it for a few minutes and then issues start re-occuring. Other HW also wired connected did not get any internet anymore.
Full reset of the system (by using the reset button on the back) and then restore fixed everything anf the system is working again. It looks like it corrupted somewhere.
Another great experience of Orbi. I decided to purchase another system and will sell this. Too many issues
Ok, loaded v22 on RBS first then RBR lastly. Sent FW to RBS using it's web page which was wireslly connected to the RBR.
No factory reset. Power OFF for 30 seconds then back ON.
Enabled Circle, DST and Traffic Meter(No Limit).
And were off and running.
With Circle and Traffic Meter enabled and other items working online.
How do you get these speeds..? I have RBR50 for years now and ~550Mbps is max download it is able to show me.
I am on latest router fw (2.7.3.22) which I installed to see if it fixes the issue. I have 1000/200 Mbps speed on provider router which is then Ethernet-connected to Orbi, but can never cross 570Mbps download when testing *on the Orbi* itself. I have
When I connect MBP directly to ISP router, I get ~900Mbps over Ethernet. So when I see your speed screenshot which I assume are from PC which is Ethernet connected to Orbi, it's really puzzling how you get near 1Gbps.
I don't have a ISP router. Modem only.
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
If your ISP Modem already has a built in router and wifi. This would be a double NAT (two router) condition which isn't recommended. https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-Double-NAT

- I have fiber, it’s some generic router that handles SFP to Ethernet conversion. When connected to Orbi, it’s placed into Bridge mode so there’s no double NAT.
I login to my ISP through Orbi’s PPPoE admin page. Can you configure the ISP hardware to handle PPPoE instead of Orbi?
Leting the RBR just DHCP instead?
Might try AP Mode with the RBR if you can put a router in front of the RBR by chance.
Also try DMZ on the ISP modem/ONT/Router as well for the RBR in router mode.
Well RBS and connected devices is working but Device Names is still "Unknown":
RBS50 is ethernet connected to the RBR using GS1 series switches.
Also had a first hiccup yesterday on the RBR50. All wifi and wired connections stopped to the internet. Opened Orbi app and found it was OFFLINE. I did a reboot of the RBR from the Orbi app and it returned to being ONLINE. I disabled Circle after that and will see if this happens again. Traffic Meter and DST are still enabled. Haven't seen other problems up to this point.
Other than this, RBK50 has been good.
Please use this mode - PPPoE in ISP Router
