RBR50: v2.5....
Factory reset should be viewed as a last resort. Understand problems with firmware releases before hand.
I have the same issues. My Orbi was the best router I've had, now its among the least reliable. I lose connection so much I often disable wifi on my cell. I've done the factory reset. It made no difference. There is something wrong with the firmware.
Revert back to what was working for you then.

I really hope that Netgear figures out what is causing problems for some people so future updates don't have this issue. I'd hate to not be able to have a critical update (security) because it breaks my internet.

I doubt the version that broke your system had critical updates. Those are pushed automatically
