Orbi Satellite Slowdown
I continue to have problems with one Orbi satellite that after two-three days of use slows it's throughput dramatically. I can normally connect and get a full 300 Mpbs connection via the satellite, ...

- Can it be that this wired coputer is the device which is occupying all the channels? :) Setting up all the sessions and not releasing them? This is just a theory but if you say that you disconnected the computer and the issue happened after restarting Orbi without this computer being connected to your system then this theory is not applicable here.
- Another question, does the issue only affect wireless devices attached to the Satellite or also those attached to the Router?
I know this is a late reply but I unplugged and turned off the wired computer so the router had no wired devices plugged in. This did not resolve the issue. The issue is not happening as frequently for me anymore (regardless of wired computer plugged in or not). It seems like it takes about 3 weeks now. But inevitably I will be limited to about 40mbps over wireless connections at some point. This is on the latest firmware. A simple router restart always resolves the problem and I am back to normal speeds (for me that is about 180mbps).
