Intermediate packet loss
I have intermediate packet loss when connected with wifi via my RBS50.
It visible on multiple machines.
If I connect via my RBR50 there's no issues.
I tried to factory reset it but the issue remains.
The status i "Good" when I check at orbilogin.net

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router

How do you document (measure) the packet loss?

I run a ping script which shows me when there's loss.
Usually I notice it when I'm on VoIP calls.

VoIP as in "only voice, no video"?
The VoIP is a separate device wired to the satellite or an app on a laptop, tablet, or smartphone?
