I continue to have random drops on both an Xbox one-s and Xbox one x. Distance to base is less than 30 feet with open 2nd floor. I don't feel the range is anywhere near advertised based on my IoT issues which we're non-existent with my old Asus router. Ring basic and pro have random connectivity issues. I have tried resets, spot beam changes and other options with no success. I am not happy with this product at all.
What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the IP modem the Orbi is connected too?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
30 feet starting is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials.
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Try disabling the following and see:
MIMO, Daisy Chain, Fast Roaming, IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).
