What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.

I have had the system for 2 years and just recently added the rbw30 about 2 months ago to extend to the garage. Things seemed to be working no issues for the last couple months but just started seeing one of the main satellites frequently disconnect. I can’t tell if it’s going bad or how often it disconnects or it’s just a UI bug. Is there a log that I can check to see how often it’s disconnecting?
