Orbi satellite make clicking sounds
I recently installed a satellite orbi router to my system and it makes a sof clicking sound. The base unit does not. The satellite is hardwired to the ethernet network. Not sure how to eliminate t...
question.
Are you sure its the satellite making the noises?
For some reason, my orbi satellite (and router) would make my subwoofer have a soft ticking/clicking noise.
I put my router/satellite on a seperate circuit and it went away. Only had issues with the 1 subwoofer doing it. None of my others. Tried several of them.
Thanks for the response. Yes, it's Orbi. No subwoofer on system, and when I disconnected power from Orbi, clicking stopped. When plugged back in, no sounds as it went through reboot (light flashing), then started again once rebooted.
Thanks
Tried swapping the power supplies? See if its coming from the power supply
I'll give it a shot. Have to wait until user(wife) gets off computer (home office for wife and I; separate businesses. AM not an IT type, so bumbling my way through troubleshooting problems. :smileyfrustrated:)
Did this issue ever get resolved? I am having the exact same issue. Just installed this today and the AC adapters are making a clicking noise just as described. Tech support at Netgear is not helping resolve this. :/
