Orbi loosing part of the network NOT Internet
I have strange disconnection problems that it is not loosing Internet access. But I am losing part of my LAN that is connected to one satellite. I have 2 satellite and 1 Orbi router set up. All par...
My backhual is an EKG like the rest of you guys go from negative 60 to - 110 signal bouncing back and fore. And yes I am on the latest firmware. It is annoying but I still count as lucky as I rarely get disconnect like u guys however it could be related to everyone problems too.
OK, right. :(
True! Maybe there are 'degrees' of being affected. I wonder if sometimes people are close enough that the backhaul drops are covered up because it instantly switches to the strong router SSID for those few seconds: so the connection is never interrupted.And maybe it's more noticeable in some of our home architecture: I'm often too far from the router so my laptop (which is a 1x1 AC antenna, too) is primarily connecting to the satellite. I use Skype a lot for work and that keeps me on edge when I lose WiFi.
IMO, I want to say it's related to the same issue. Or maybe someone else is experiencing this and can chime in. I don't know if you're still in the 90-day free phone call time period, but maybe start a ticket there. Maybe Netgear knows some weird bug we don't. At least they'll maybe be able to set you up with a replacement.
