Orbi backhall signal dropping to Zero
When I upgraded to the latest firmware the backhall signal started to drop to zero. It was smooth prior to the upgrade. This has to degrade performance. See below. What can be done?

Good morning peteytesting,
How are we supposed to read the apps correctly? This sounds like my issues but I want to verify.
Can you attest that there is no problem with the backhall?
Thank you

My research on backhaul in the past 2-3 weeks indeed suggests that the 'dropouts' observed are an instrumentation issue on the part of the measurement tool(s) and are *not* indicative of actual loss of signal, as verified by a few people now (including myself) doing fire-and-forget UDP during the periods of 'loss'.

3 Points to make here:
1. Had the NAS hooked to Orbi router for 18 days, No connection Loss reported by NAS. Moved NAS to SAT, connection loss reported everyday connect to SAT.
2. During these outages the NAS was not accessable. So I am not relying on just a software notification.
3. LogiCircle cam is 6ft (straight in front) of SAT and signal strength drops to 5%. I am not adding cam to this issue. b/c the cam is wireless. BUT I dont understand a WIRED device reporting drops ONLY on the SAT??? Not on the Orbi Router.
Maybe the situation is different. If you would like me to perform something specific, please post the process.
Thanks
