So, I am relatively technical and out of nowhere by Orbi Mesh has lost its mind.

Spent two weeks with Spectrum to make sure everything is perfect between the Node and my House and then with Spectrum Maintenance to make sure the Node and Upstream is fine.

I share a node with my neighbor, and he has had zero issues....so it appears to be my Orbi out of the blue.

No new devices added or removed and no changes.

What firmware is loaded on the RBR and RBS?

Firmware is V2.7.5.6

What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

Brand New Spectrum Charter Modem - Model ET2251 / DOCSIS 3.1 eMTA

What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router 📡 and satellite(s)🛰️? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR 📡 and RBS 🛰️ to begin with depending upon building materials when wired or wirelessly connected.

Nothing changed of course, but 3,000. Each Orbit is on its own floor, 2nd, Main, Basement and for 4 years has worked flawlessly and yes more than 30 ft apart of course.

Does this happen with the RBS turned OFF?

Mmmm...I have not been able to try that as my wife works on the Main Floor and her only access is Wireless and she can't get a single from the RBR from my second floor office....but on the weekend I can try this if nothing else.

Does this happen with both wireless and wired devices?

Yes - my work laptop is hard wired to RBR

What channel configurations are currently set on the router? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.

Nothing changed....but 2.4Ghz is Auto and 5GHz is 48 - how is is possible that Auto for years worked on 2.4 and now this is my issue...can adjust I guess, but a bit lost on this one.

Be sure to disable any MAC Address randomizers on phones and pads while at home:
