Devices connect to Orbi network, some devices don't get internet though (Orbi RBR850)
I've spent countless hours searching this forum, rebooting my ISP modem, rebooting and re-configuring my RBR850 (with 2 satellites) multiple times today. The network is set up. I have 20 devices ...
What are the devices that are failing to connect to the internet?
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

Try disabling the following and see:
Armor, Circle, Daisy Chain, Fast Roaming, IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Set Short preamble instead of Long preamble modes. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).
