so you have a 2000 f sq house which tbh isnt that big and should be able to be covered by the orbi router its self without the sat
so in such a small area if your wifi is struggling then the building materials and or enviornmental conditions are coming into play and effecting the signal , so whats the house made of material wise internal walls wise and where is the orbi router and sat located
how far apart have you got the orbi router and sat apart and what do you mean by you have installed them correctly
here i have a 3500 sq ft house and an orbi router and 1 sat cover it fine my second sat is almost too much

It's not the spread that's the problem. It's that to open a website Thales at least 30 seconds even beside the router or satellite. The speeds on a test are very fast tho yet again to start the speed test using ookla app takes ages also

this indicates you have a routing issue
- gimpyahernAug 21, 2017AspirantHave you any suggestions as to how to correct this

whats connected in front of the orbi and or other devices on your local area network , ip conflicts often cause this , you need to make sure you only have one router running and that all devices are using the dhcp server of the orbi if in router mode
