Apple devices disconnect from satellite
Hello! My iPhone SE and iPad 2 seem to have trouble staying connected to one of my Orbi satellites. I can be sitting two feet away from the satellite and will drop a bar, and sometimes disconnect ent...
I have been struggling with my iOS devices showing full strength wifi, but no connection for some time now in a room that is equal distances from the router and satellite.
I had already disabled:
- Beamforming,
- MIMO-MU,
- Daisy Chain,
- Fast Roaming
And went in and changed the following settings:
- Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only.
- Changed CTS/RTS Threshold to 2307 for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz
The problem is gone. I am going to see if it is the combo of the two or just one, but very happy this is solved.
Thanks...I tried changing these, other than the 20/40 co-existance setting (which I couldn't find), and no joy. Where to you find that setting?
I believe theres is a 20/40Mhz check box under Basic/Wireless settings. Uncheck this to get 40Mhz.
