ORBI and Frontier FIOS (Quantum G1100 Router) Internet Drops
I have the Orbi RBR50 (Router + 2 satellites) with v1.10.1.2 connected in AP mode to my Frontier FIOS Quantum G1100 Router, with the FIOS Wifi disabled. My internet, wifi AND the FIOS router ethernet, drops for approximately 6 seconds every 15 minutes, to the second. I am running Net Uptime Monitor that tracks drops greater than 5 seconds. This affects the devices connected directly to the FIOS Router via ethernet LAN. This is not really noticeable with regular internet activity, but is definitely a problem with PS4 online gaming and my Ooma VOIP phone connected directly to the FIOS router. Otherwise, the internet signal and connectivity are great. If I disconnect Orbi from the FIOS Router, the internet failures cease to happen. I have confirmed that BEAMFORMING and MU-MIMO are disabled. Any ideas before returning the Orbi to Costco? Thanks!
