Orbi - Device Battery Life
I've seen some old messages with users having similar issues, but I haven't found one yet with a fix for my issue. I've got several portable devices that are seeing severe battery drain, but only...
I would power OFF the RBS and disable Guest Network and test to see if you still notice battery drain. Possible that the wifi device is flipping back and forth between either the RBR or RBS signals when it shouldn't be. This would indicate a possible wifi device problem.
I don't have a solution to the problem, but I did notice the same thing happening with a couple of basic phones that run Android when I installed my Orbi system this summer. They had no battery drain issues on my previous setup, which was not a mesh system.
