Orbi Internet Issues...
Bought and installed new Orbi system yesterday. Everything worked great, with the exception I was getting roughly 1/2 the speed I was with my Xfinity gateway. Fast forward to today, I’ve had to restar...
Sorry, just got home. Gateway is a Cisco DPC3941T is bridge mode. My Orbi app is telling me I have firmware version 2.0.0.56. It is telling me there are no updates available, but maybe that’s not the case? With my old Nighthawk and Cisco gateway, I was typically getting 170-190 Mbps. I haven’t seen anything over 90 Mbps with the Orbi. Ethernet cable has been swapped out, as well. My WiFi list pulls up almost 15 different networks for my neighbors. No idea how to check what channels they’re using.
The beta is for RBR50 and RBK50 models. All other models are still waiting...soon.
Find you a wifi scanner for your mobile device and see if you can tell what channels there using. Would be best to find 1, 6 or 11 with minimal use of others if possible.
Be sure when speed testing that your using a wired ethernet PC connected to the router for more accurate results.
