My system is dropping the webcams, I can see the WiFi signal dropping to zero on both the Router and the Satellites using the Acrylic WiFi analysis program on my desktop. There seems to be a definite stability problem looking for a Firmware update.

Hello Desli1
Have you tried to disable beamforming in the advanced wireless settings?

I confirmed on my work PC that it only supports 2.4 gHz. Because of this, the only thing I can think of that is causing the drop would be if it is switching from the router to the satellite and vice versa. Is there any way to assign a device specific to either the satellite or router? I do not know why it would continue to bounce back and forth if I am not moving around. This happens several times a day. I do notice when I am joining a Skype call or using more bandwidth, it happend more often. Anyone have any other ideas to resolve?
