Thanks for the reply:

 

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

 

- Think it's an Arris something or other, it's not clear as it's branded as the ISP. <There a sticker that may have a model#? Just checking to see if this modem has a router and wifi built in or not. 

 

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 wirelessly connected.

- They are probably about 20ft from the RBR and on different floors, we have some very thick walls that caused me to place them closer to get the best performance and range. Especially covering out into the garden and into the loft where we have a room and with just one RBS the coverage was poor.

 

What channels are you using? Auto? Try Auto and 48 on 5Ghz. Or try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.

 

- Using Ch 48 and Ch 13 as others have local wifi on them from neighbouring properties

Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?

 

- c10 other wifi signals picked up. All on different channels to those I am using

Also try turning down the power output of the RBRs wifi radios from 100% to 50% and see if this changes anything. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings

 

Is Armor, Circle or Traffic Meter enabled?

 

- SPC is enabled, no Armour or TM <Possible SPC could be slowing things down. A factory reset maybe needed and setup from scratch and don't enable SPC to see if this changes anything.
