Audio cuts for a split second
My audio cuts for a split second every so often. each device varies but it usually when i’m streaming audio. It can be on any type of devices, computer, tv, ipad, etc

If I understand this correctly having my Orbi setup in AP mode will basically be extending my ATT network?

Also turning off the ATT wifi did help some, but not fully. My house is its 2700 sq ft with plaster walls. Is it possible the Orbi satellites can be interfering with each other too?----No, the whole purpose of the satellites is to connect to each other. I have occaisionally seen issues when there's to many satellites but its a bit rare of an occurence. I didn't see it at my place until I was runnig 3x satellites including my router. And that was on 3200 sqft. My computer improve a lot, but my TV still has this split second audio pause and gives off a quick little spike sound.
