RBR50 Speed Test Failing
Can no longer use the ORBI app on my iPhone to condust a speed test. This problem just started within a week. When I try I get: Connection Failed If the problem persists, try rebooting your router. I have rebooted both the cable modem and Orbi Router multiple times, still getting the same error when trying to conduct a speed test.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You in advance,
Pete

I am experiencing the same problems with the app speed test. It was working perfectly until I updated to firmware v 2.1.3.4. I have rebooted the router as suggested. I have deleted an reinstalled the app. Nothing seems to work...
This router is such garbage it makes me mad.
- Try it today, many other speed test worked!
My speed test is repeatedly failing. Re-booted, as suggested. No luck. Would like to have it restored.

Run any speeds tests with a PC and a browser or the Ookla speedtest.net from a mobile phone until the Orbi app and any onboard router apps are fixed. NG is aware of the issue. This is a service issue with NG.
