Orbi signal range
OK I have this odd issue. I thought it was just my orbi malfunctioning for some reason. It has come to my attention that there is another Orbi around my area, but the thing it would have to be within...

The other Orbi would not need to be on your property and it could be setup. I can connect to my Orbi 500 feet away from my house. I never changed my factory SSID either.
I would think another Orbi that far away shouldn't significantly impact yours. What are you seeing that indicates that's the issue?
- LavolpeJun 16, 2018AspirantWell I figured it's my satellite because when it's not connected my system doesn't crash every five minutes. The satellite is in the part of the house where the other ssid can be reached. Also the other orbi system seems to be kinda phantom like, for a lack of a better word, as one second it's in my range and the next it's gone.
