Error Message: Cannot Verify Server Identity
I have an Orbi RBR50v2 with the latest firmware. All of the sudden I started to get an error message saying "Cannot Verify Server Identity" on the iPhones connected to WiFi. Basically I have no internet connection on my phones. I believe this is related to the routerlogin security certificate issued by the router but I couldn't find a way to fix this problem. Please help. Thank you!
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.Be sure to disable any MAC Address randomizers on phones and pads while at home:

I disabled "Private Wi-Fi Address" on my home network as you suggested and that fixed the problem. Thank you so very much for your help!
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
