ORBI 2..4 gHz speeds

The next time the issue comes back, please see if this provides any information.

• Log into the Orbi web interface.
• Select the Advance Tab and make a note of the Orbi IP address (often 192.168.1.1)
• Change "index.htm" to read "debug.htm" and connect again.
• Check the box toward the bottom "Enable Telnet"
• Open a telnet program and connect to the Orbi
• Log in using "admin" and the administrative password
• Type this command:
  wlanconfig ath0 list
• This will list all of the devices connected to the Orbi router at 2.4G.
  It's one very long line of values for each device and will probably wrap around more than once.
• What you care about is the beginning of each line.
  Here is the first part of mine:
  ADDR            AID CHAN TXRATE RXRATE
  b8:c7:5d:52:02:fa 1   3   65M   65M
  30:ae:a4:6c:c8:40 3   3   72M   65M
  f4:b8:5e:43:88:84 4   3   58M    5M
  f4:b8:5e:06:79:4d 2   3   58M   72M
• The TX rate is the speed the Orbi is transmitting (TX) to the device.
  The RX rate is the speed the Orbi is receiving (RX) from the device
• One of these should match the MAC address of the problem iPad.
  (Which can be looked up on the iPad or on the Orbi "Attached Devices" page.
• What, it isn't there?
  This means you have to go through the process on the satellite.
  Connect to the debug page, enable telnet, log on with telnet, type the command.

This seems an enormous task at first, and I realize that only a "desperate person" would attempt it.

My hope is that it shows something interesting.
