Orbi Facetime lag issue
I'm having issue while using Facetime on Orbi RBR50 wifi. It's reconnecting every 10-20 seconds. When I switch over to cell network for the same Factime, it's working just fime. Anyone aware of this issue or the fix?
Hello 8380
There are disconnect issues on IOS that the engineers are working on you would try to lower the power level of the 2.4ghz network in the Advanced wireless settings some people have said this makes a more stable connection for IOS devices.

Darren that fixed it. I tried many other settings but didn't think that the power level would matter. Thank you very much!!
