Hello,
every thing was working just fine with v2.2.1.210 however one i have updated to 2.3.0.28 everything went mad as below :
- all Satellites are going up and down "no more stable connection"
- Backhaul Status is updated ever 5 to 10 secounds (config sync ==== > status ==== > config sync ==== > status ...etc)
- android app doesn't show my Satellites connected (sometimes 1 or 2 or 3 but it's not stable with every refresh) which wasn't the case beofre FW upgrade
once i have downgraded again to v2.2.1.21 , everything is working back again as expected.
note : i have been testing this for 2 weeks

Whats the distance between the RBR and RBS's?
Was a facory reset performed on both RBR and RBSs?
Others haven't seen this issue:

the distance is arround 13.1234 feet (4 meters)
and yes facory reset performed on both RBR and RBSs

13 feet is too close between the router and satellites. 30 feet minimum to start. The RBR can cover around and up to beyond 30 feet alone depending upon building materials.
