Orbi MR 2.1 Update 3/23/18
Our teams are still working through the issues, but I wanted to provide a quick update on OrbiOS 2.1. We usually wait to release our software until it's available across all Orbi product lines, but ...
I’m starting to think there are some time triggered bugs. I saw a rock solid 24hr too. And every time I’ve tried a settings change that causes a restart, I seem to have stability for about a day.
Which now makes me think that all the times I’ve disabled or tweaked a setting that caused a reboot and had a better experience for the day, it was the reboot, not the tweak that caused the temporary improvement.
Seemed to work great for me untill i decided it was finally fixed. Then it seems to start dropping connections. Usually after a day of use.
Was a factory reset performed after installing the Beta FW on BOTH router and Satellites?
What setings have you changed?
Any wifi neighbors near by? If so how many? What channels are they using?
Have you tried setting manual 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channels on 5Ghz?
Disabling all MIMO, Daisy Chain and Fast Roaming features? Might also disablie Beamforming as well. I've left Beamforming ON and disabled MIMO since I dont have many MIMO devices.
How is the system set up and place? Distance between my router and satellite is about 40 feet.
