Got major speed decrease on iOS devices  - dropped from about 200 Mbps to less as 20 or sometimes even 10 Mbps (measuered with Netflix / speedtest.net App).

Aynone else experienced this?

Any clue on how to correct this?

Hello nlrela

 

I would try to log into the orbi and go to the wireless settings and try changing the wireless channel and see if that improves the speed. also are your other devices getting the high speeds and didnt experience the loss of speed?

    Hi DarrenM

     

    I have changed the channels unfortunately without any positive effect. And all devices are affected.

    Only difference is, that I installed FW 1.4.0.18 .....
