Orbi and Nest Outdoor Camera issues
I just install the ORBI mesh system and although the speed is fantasic, my two Nest outdoor camera seems to be losing signal(disconnecting) several times a day. Over 10 minutes sometimes. This happen...
This is a well-known problem right now. The workaround is to disable "implicit beamforming" in Advanced Setup... Wireless Settings - Uncheck the "Enable Implicit BEAMFORMING" option and your Nest cameras will stop disconnecting.
Thanks Mickey for the response, but it seems I don't have that option. The options are: Enable SSID Broadcast, Enable Wireless Router Radio, and Enable 20/40 MHz coexistance. I have firmware V1.4.0.34. Weird
It's on the very bottom of that screen, below "Backhaul Password".
Ok I see it now, but apprentely it has already been deselected all this time, and my camera still randomly go offline. So something else must be going on?? I do like the speed performance of ORBI but if it doesn't play well with my cameras, I'll probably have to return this. The main reason why I was looking into this was to have constant streaming of my cameras.
FWIW, I returned the Linksys Velop after a few days because it had the same problem with Nest cameras.
