Issues with satellite for RBK43
Hello I actually have a RBK43-200NAR orbi router with 2 satellites, unfortunately it wasnt an option in the model field? Anyway, i have the router upstairs in my house in the master bedroom on the ba...
The problem does follow when i swap locations of the RBS but ive only tried locations on the same side of the house that my office is on. My home is 2215 sq ft
Daisy chain is enabled.
I have tried turning off one of the RBS, specifically the one in my office, and the wireless speeds improved dramatically, but this doesn't solve my problem as i have a desktop computer in my office that needs to be plugged in via ethernet.

What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
Try disabling Daisy Chain and put the 2nd RBS back online...
- 2215 sq ft.
Tried disabling daisy chain and brining second RBS back online and still having the same issue.
I believe that the RBS is 30+ feet away from the RBRFor that size of home, having two RBS with the RBR maybe too much...Seems the reducing the RBS by one helps here.
Try this, try turning down the power output of the RBRs wifi radios from 100% to 50% and see if this changes anything. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
Put the 2nd RBS back online...
- Tried turning down the power output to 50% same issue.
Tried turning it down to 25% same issue.
I tried disabling the RBS downstairs and that didnt seem to help either.
