RBK40 backhaul status poor
Hay guys I own an RBK40 Orbi WiFi system with 1 satellite. I have positioned satellite 20 ft away from router with direct line of sight. Sill the backhaul status is poor. Tried resetting the rout...
20 feet is too close between the RBR and RBS. 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router
Has a power OFF of the RBR and RBS for 30 seconds since last FW update been performed?
Don't remember if the there has been a 30 s outage.
Did tried to increase the distanse to increase the distance further, had to put it on the other side of a wall and with that the connect breaks altogether.
Not sure what is the issue.
