Those are the ones that you will probably have to go to directly and forget the network and re-join, then reboot

I have restarted a couple of devices but they are not shown in connected list.
Also none of the wires devices are showing either.
A lot of wifi devices are dropping connection.
The firmware updates of Orbi RBR50 is really bad.
It shouldn't be this many issues every time a new FW is released.

Be sure to power OFF the ISP modem, RBR and RBS for 1 minute then back ON after a FW update. If problems still crop up, a factory reset and setup from scratch maybe needed.

How the hell can a restart of my fiber switch have anything to do with my Orbi not showing my connected devices?
If I reboot/shutdown the Orbi units all connections are dropped and the Orbi router has no idea if any other node has been restarted.
But just for taking your advise I will do as you what you say.
