horrible 2.3.5.30

RBR50 + 2x RBS50, wireless backhaul.

 

After upgraded to 2.3.5.30, the 2 satellites keep disconencted from RBR50, sometimes satellites reconnected back to RBR50 after few mins, sometimes they didn't, I had to restart satellites. 

 

did factory reset on satellites, no help at all.

 

 

 

  • Try a factory reset on the RBR. If you only reset the RBS and not the RBR after the FW update, this could help. 

     

    I setup my RBK50 system again in AP mode, yesterday. RBS is wired though. No issues here.

  • AP mode.

     

    They used to be very stable in the past one year with 2.2.x.x firmware

        I did factory reset on RBR50 3 days ago and it ... did help. I didn't encounter any disconenction so far. Thanks for the tip. 

         

        I hope I don't need to do factory reset on all units regularly... 

  • What types of devices are attached to Orbi?
    I experienced that latest Orbi SW releases are “sensitive” to some attached devices.
    No issues with phones, computers and tablets as I could see. Please disconnect all other devices, forget networks on those devices and attach again.

    Why did you upgrade your firmware?
