CBR40 random loss of connectivity
ORBI CBR40 running the latest firmware on COX 150M/10M. My issue to say the least is weird. I went back to my old Zoom modem because I'm experiencing loss of connectivity to my work environment. ...
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
Press the back reset button for 15 seconds then release.
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router
