Orbi Traffic Meter stopped working
In the last several days the Traffic Meter on my Netgear Orbi system mysteriously stopped working. All entries reverted to zero even though I have traffic flowing every day. I googled the issue a...
Maybe I'm missing something but there seems to be a simple work-around for this.
Turn off DST and then select a time zone that gives you the correct time. That will provide traffic and the correct time. Come November when the time changes back, you can just adjust your time zone back to the correct zone for your location.
I did try turning the DST option back on and when I did, the traffic meter reverted to all zeroes again. So I can reproduce the problem consistently.
Oh well, I am just happy that I got a solution that got the traffic meter back working correctly. I can live with the clock being off an hour...until the fall when we go back off DST...lol

Thanks for the report. I should have checked my own Orbi before responding. "Funniest thing", MY RBR50 Traffic Meter is also "zeroed out." When I turn it off and download 100mb of files, nothing shows. When I turn it back on again and download files, nothing slows.
What fun!
