Hello, I have the above Obri Router. For the past 11 months, it has worked great. Our internet service provider installed a new modem and since then every day I need to reset the Orbi (unplug, wait 30 seconds, plug back in). Then it works find for about 24 hours.
Firmware version is: V2.5.1.16
Our cable modem is an Arris model:TG3452.
Any troubleshooting ideas are welcome. Thank you!
