Making any change that reboots the network will speed things up again for a couple days, then it slows back down. I've connected a computer to the satellite via ethernet when this issue is happening and I get full speed, so it shouldn't be a communication issue between the satellite and the main. Netgear had me change the 2.4 and 5ghz channels, enable MU-MIMO, and enable Fast Roaming. It's only been a a couple hours, and so far, it kind of works? Now any device connected to the satellite is getting 100 Mbps less than the devices connected to the main, which isn't terrible, but....this doesn't make sense to me. Why would changing ANY setting be the solution if everything works at full speed for 1-2 days at a time? Anyone else seen this/have a solution?
What wired devices do you have connected to Orbi? Any mesh speakers (e.g. Sonos)?
