ORBI Wifi Speed Drops
Hey Guys, So I have had my Orbi several months now. Every 3-4 weeks the wifi speed drops to below 30 mbs for download. However the speed test on the unit read 190 mps. The wired speeds also drop to e...
Just curious, in the QoS setup what do your speeds show there? Dont run the test again would like to know what the readings are before.
They are consistently 190+ whenever I use that. So it is getting that speed but then stops passing it through for some unknown reason
I have exactly the same problem. I have a 300Mbps connection. Every couple weeks, the DL speed drops to about 30Mbps. Upload stays consistent at about 30Mbps, it does not drop in speed at all.
I *think* it started after the last update to the latest firmware: V2.0.0.74.
Factory reset fixes it for me every time so far. It's really annoying.
I'm having the same issue as these folks. 350+ connection with wired pc not on orbi (orbi is in AP mode along with the two satelites). If i reset everything, i get good speeds again for a while. Darren_M can you get us an update on this issue?
Whats the proper procedure to get the internet speed back? Factory reset does not seem to help. Do I need to telnet into each satelite and do a nvram erase command? What is the proper command?
nvram erase commit ?
