RBR and RBS reboot
To eliminate potential bugs, I took it upon myself to do a factory reset, 90 minutes later the system is stable again, although the firmware has shown further bugs. 1. The factory reset on the RBR ha...
I am a bit confused by the change in user name (Cvv to Orbi2020pc) and router (RBK853 to RBR50v2).
And does the topic remain the system rebooting under load, or.......?
I have the original RBR50 (version 1) and iPerf3 out the WAN port is limited by my 11Mb Spectrum upload:

None of the Orbi systems support assigning different SSIDs to the 2.4G and 5G WiFi channels. If these other SSIDs are appearing, they may be from a WiFi extender?
does this apply to RBR50 vers 2, with 1 Satellite(circa 2020)?.....I have users dropping all day as their wifi connections are moving and changing channels(my guess). They are losing work meeting connections .
I just rebooted the main router with paperclip. We had a 4 hr cable outage and my Router afterwards would NOT reconnect. I use my own 2 gig modem with comcast providing 400mb, and my Orbi is connected to modem via a cat 6 wire.
Can I set up sep SSID's via the Router, should I? Right now I see my Main network , then 2 others called 2gext and 5gext? Should I change the signal strength on 2g and 5g?
The random dropping is crazy. Could it be the Cable modem,(should it be in bridge mode)? I don't think it's my Modem, because Orbi is saying it's getting a 350mb. Whether that is a stable signal or not, who knows?
