Airplay connection issues with Orbi
Greeting Netgear community, I recently purchased and installed an Orbi system with two satellites. It has been a great addition and works great for wifi in general. One thing I can struggling with is ...
In case anyone was searching for the answer. I have found my problem. The Hegel was plugged into a Switch which was causing the issue. Once i connect the Hegel directly to the port of the Orbi, no airplay dropouts and airplay worked perfectly.
Glad you found the fix for this in your configuration. Odd that switches would do this unless it's a bad switch.
Thanks for sharing.
Enjoy. :smileywink:

When I finally unplugged all Apple TV’s from switch (that I have used for years) and plugged directly into Orbi the problem resolved.

What is the mfr and model# of this switch you've been using?
Thanks for sharing.
Enjoy.
