Orbi latency peaks every 10s
Hi, I've noticed that pinging the Orbi Router when connected to the satellite shows latency peaking every 10s, and lasts for about 3s. I'm hoping this isn't to be expected and something that ...
I just did a test from my laptop connected to satellite via ethernet, not showing the same and actually very good and stable:

Ping statistics for 192.168.1.1:
Packets: Sent = 60, Received = 60, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 2ms, Maximum = 3ms, Average = 2ms
I also ran a ping test from my laptop connected to the satellite. My ping results aren't as stable as MarkC1024's, but don't show the huge variation of the OP:

Let's try to figure out what's going on for the OP:
1. Have you run this same test on multiple clients? That will eliminate a client-specific issue.
2. What else do you have running on your wireless network? What else is connected to the same satellite (Basic... Attached Devices)? I have 9 other clients attached to the same satellite as my laptop, including a Dropcam, so there's a bit of other traffic going on.
3. What connection speed is your client using? My laptop is 5G vs. 2.4G. This doesn'treally tell us anything other than at least I'm connected the best way. :-)
