Update: The disconnect happens every 30 minutes like clockwork. Not exactly at the top and bottom of the hour but at around :26 after and :56 after. The satellite disconnects but immediately reconnects within a few seconds (orange then blue light). I have tried resetting the entire setup already and same issue. there was a newer firmware for both routher and satellte I just updated to yesterday but that made no difference either.

Have you tried to factory reset the satellite and resync it with the router?

Hi, I had posted this on another thread to change the subject line but in short I discovered there are several pieces of equipment that are interfering with the satellites. The first is a setup we have for Nielsen ratings and the other one is a just a more common computer wireless headset from Plantronics. I have tested exetnsively with both off and on and the problem follows either of those items being on. I still believe this problem surfaced with a recent firmware update on the satellite as I have had those other devices for months and this issue is more recently happening.
