Orbi Intermittent Internet issues

I have a 2-unit Orbi installed in AP mode connected to my switch on FiOS. I had an Asus 68U router before and never experienced a interruption to the internet.

 

Orbi works just fine, then it just stops routing to the FiOS router at 192.168.1.1 - when this happens I cannot ping 192.168.1.1 but when things are working pings do work fine.

 

Is there something wrong?? It fails for 15-30 seconds and so far has come back by itself... logs do not show anything.

Turn off implicit beamforming??? That seems to be one of the leading causes of pain for folks with Orbi so far.

And where doI find that? I don't remember seeing any setting for it
