Only that we are using an Orbi cable modem (CBK40), the satellite that it comes with, an Orbi router, and three plug-in satellites. Their firmware is all up to date. We are using it with Xfinity, not their gateway, and it is authenticated with Xfinity.
I still don't understand why my internet time is behind by 11 seconds on my computer, 1 second ahead on my phone, and all this while only being connected to one of the plug in satellites, but when connected to the router's WiFi signal, everything works properly. It's the plug in satellite that's the problem.
