RBR40 slow wifi
Hello, I have the RBR40 and the two wall plug satellites that came with it. System has work great for over a year. In the past few weeks, the wifi speeed slowed to a crawl. I was about 300mbps down, ...
Orbi Firmware: Router V2.5.1.16 Satellite: V2.5.0.4
Spectrum Internet Box: Hitron E31N2V1
1 min off reboot: Yes
Channel: Auto
3850 sq ft home. Sats are about 30 feet from the router.
I have not tried differnt channels. Is that my only hope to fix?
Are the sats RBS or RBWs?
The sats that usually come with the RBR40 are RBW30.
I'm thinking he has new WIFI systems in his area and maybe has interference.
I know I recently had to change my 2.4Ghz channel because me installing a mesh system in my neighbor's home.
Hello, the sats are RBW30s. I've now tried the suggested channels and the system is crazy unreliable. My system is now out of warranty so returning them is not an option. Should I just buy new Orbis and hate Netgear?
- Before buying, I would do a complete factory reset and reconfigure your Orbi. There are so many reasons why you are running slow.
Have you tested you actual internet connection? Also swap out the cable that is connected to your Orbi RBR40 fom your ISP modem.
