    Yes, this is a known issue, unfortunately, that was never fixed.

    Every now and then (mostly after Orbi Router reboot) the DDNS connectivity will be -somehow- lost. You have to go manually on the the DDNS settings in the web GUI under >> ADVANCED >> Advanced Settings >> DDNS. If you click on "Show Status" you will get a message in the meaning "there is no update for this ddns". What you need to do to fix this is to manually disable DDNS, click on Apply, then enable again and click on Apply to get it working again. I usually do this every time the router is restarted.

    I noticed this issue in the early Orbi releases and the fault is still there.
