Orbi Rbs50 satellite being slow
I have 400 mgb Spectrum internet speed and recently just had a tech come out to check on some issues I’ve been having. I can run speed tests at my main computer that’s hardwired to the orbi router and...

The spectrum tech had his equipment that he can connect to the end of lines or plug into the back of modems and satellites and run ping tests. Not sure exactly what it was but he plugged it into every satellite and router. So now I’m more confused lol
With everything I’ve read so far it seems like it’s a firmware that I need to manually download or some backhaul issue I have know idea the proper way to fix. The firmware now is v2.3.5.50. But my biggest question is the dynamic dns service. I’ve had to reset my equipment up several times because of similar issues and had to re-register it through NETGEAR. Now that I’ve had this equipment for a couple years it’s not letting me. Coincidence???

Regarding Dynamic DNS, this is a software issue since a long time ago. To overcome this just go to the Dynamic DNS settings under >> ADVANCED >> Advanced Setup >> Dynamic DNS and uncheck Use a Dynamic DNS Service then click on Apply and then check back the settings and Apply again. Try Show Status after that and you can see that your DDNS will be updated correctly after that. :)
It seems that this issues happens every time Orbi Router is restarted.
