Certain devices losing internet connection while others completely unaffected. RB50

All of my Apple devices work well with my RBK50. V40 FW loaded and factory reset and setup from scratch. SSID is never separated. Separated SSID is not supported on orbi and maybe a cuase of your problems.

Manual channels 1 and 48

IPv6 disabled on the RBR and 40mhz coexistence set. Beamforming and WMM enabled aswell.

What version of FW is currently loaded on the system? 

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

Hi All,

 

I recently purchased an Orbi RBR50 system to replace my old router which struggled to give full connectivitiy around the house. There was a few teething issues at the start, mainly between devices struggled to be switched between the 2.4g and 5g networks automatically. 

 

To solve this I went through the router with telnet, and created two seperate SSIDs for the 2.4 and 5g networks respectively. This worked well until about 2 weeks ago, where my iMac and phone started to lose internet connection while being still connected to the network. For the iMac, the connection loses it identification and won't obtain internet access until its disconnected and reconnected manually. For the phone, the wifi network must be 'forgotten' and then connected too again, however, as soon as the phone goes to sleep, it loses the connection. 

 

Has anyone got any ideas for how to solve this? 90% of the devices work perfectly, but these two are obvious quite annoying.

 

Cheers
