ORBI Wifi Speed Drops
I'm experiencing problems with the wifi dropping to 1/3 of it was after the setup. I reboot the router and all is fine for a while but then it reverts back to the same problem. I find myself rebooting daily and sometimes twice a day. I've tried a hard reset 3 times now and can't get it to maintain its highest speed.
This is getting frustrating and thinking of returning this unit.Any help from a moderator would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried to enable beamforming and mumimo in the advanced wireless settings?

- Antipodeansam7ApprenticeI have tried this with no change and also find that when the speed drops it effects wired as well, so not sure these would help regardless. How about you Mach?
