Dealing with exactly the same issue with my RBR750. On with support (had to buy gearhead support) and after 4 days of reset, reset, reset, on/off reset, reset downgrade firmware, upgrade firmware, reset they agreed this morning to RMA my router. I feel as though this is a hardware issue since the older firmware did it as well but we will see
Thanks for the update. I agree thatr it's definitely a problem with the Orbi, although I'm not sure if it's hardware or software. The problem is certainly not due to a slower modem, unless there's no flow control (hardware or software) or insufficient buffering in the Orbi, which is, once again, an Orbi issue. I never got a response back from Netgear support, which is another reason I returned mine.
If Netgear does acknowledge that there's a problem and fixes it I'll see about trying it again, but if not I'll have to se if there's a mesh network system that has equivalent coverage and good reliability.
Any progress on this?
