ORBI dropping wifi connection

I just setup my new ORBI RBK30 with router and satellite configured correctly. Since then it has never been a smooth ride. The wifi keeps dropping connection every few minutes. As part of setup, I changed my SSID and password.

Strange enough, and I haven't figured out a pattern, but when I lose Wifi connectivity every few minutes, I can reconnect by using old/default router password even when I have changed my wifi password.

All my wired connections are working without any issues.

I also made sure that the Satellite connects to the Router and shows a solid Blue light when connected meaning that it's placed at an optimal distance to the router.

The router updated the firmware on it's own and now it's at version 2.0.0.56

Re: ORBI dropping wifi connection

there was no change in terms of the issue I was facing. Wifi connection still keeps dropping every few minutes.
