What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.

I did notice that when I first replaced my prior Orbi system, this one worked correctly for several days. Then, gradually it started dropping connections to the various devices.
When it is working, I get excellent, fast coverage throughout my apartment. I just wish that I didn’t have to drop what I was doing to reboot it every day.
Please help!
