Satelite disconnect problems. This is a flawed product. Messages all over these boards.
I bought the rbr20 at Costco for my second home, as I wanted a simple consumer product that would "just work". What a mistake! This product has serious design flaws and should be taken off the mark...
FW is up to day. Not sure of the exact distance, but close to 30ft. Lots of nighboring units, so there are many SSID's / routers in the area. What should I drop the power to?
There may be many messages referring to units that work, but there are also many messages referring to this problem. This is not a one off and I feel that it should be addressed.

If you have many other WiFi neighbors, this is something that can't be fixed by fixing any code in FW. this is nature of the beast with having many other wifi signals nearby. Called wifi interference.
We can address it by changing the power levels of the Orbi from 100% to say lets try 50% or 75%. Try 50% first.
Also not all problems are FW releated. There are some that are just either mis-configured or placed incorrectly.
