RBR50 signal lost multiple times during the day when having teams calls
I have a RBR50 router connecting to two sattelites. One on each floor. On the 1st floor the connecting is lost several times during the day. On the 2nd floor the issue is the same.
How can I improve the network to be more stable? Or do I need to upgrade to a newer set up?

How long has this been happening?
What status are you seeing for the backhaul connection?

It is happening for a long time already. I am not so technical. What do you mean?

Months? Years? Since you first installed it?

Log into the admin web ui, and then click on the "attached devices" tile on the upper right.
You'll see the connected satellites at the top, and the far right column is "Backhaul Status". The "Connection Type" field is also relevant.

Wired devices don’t drop
Are any of these connected to the satellites? Or are they all connected to the router?

Is it all devices? Just a few devices?
Just wireless devices? Do wired devices drop?
Is it devices only connected to the satellites? Do the ones connected to the router drop?
What modem/gateway is the orbi connected to?
What fixes the issue?

It are mainly laptops with windows on it. Wired devices don’t drop. My PS5 works perfectly online, even with a switch after the router.
The orbi is connected to a Sagemcom router from my provider. That was recently checkt on health and all good.
Just waiting solves the issue but when being in a teams call it is frustrating that is drops many times

Would changing some advanced settings like 5Ghz Channel might help?
