Orbi RBR20 Life Expectancy
I have an RBR20 with 3x RBS20 satellites, all V2.7.4.24. I think I bought this in 2018 or 2019 - what's the life expectancy? In the last week, the mesh network has started dropping out randomly...
I had my RBR50 and it's 8 satellites since 2017 and it's working perfectly well, very high loads most of the time, with over 50 devices connected.
You can monitor the network using the web GUI (orbilogin.com) where you will see the status of router, all satellites and attached devices. You can also see the logs for information on what is happening on the network. You can also make speed tests from the GUI.
I think the web GUI and the Orbi app are good enough to monitor and manage my network, so far.
