Satellite Keeps losing connection
Orbi worked great the first week. Since then it drops connectivity daily along with the satellite.
Same here.
Satellite bricks.
Can't access web-admin. Can't connect wifi.
I got new firmware V1.12.0.14. and not I'm testing.
Where do you go to update firmware?
Hello Doug
Have you logged into the Web UI and checked the attached devices? can you see the satellite?

Never mind
Yes.... the web app shows the 2 orbis (router and Sat)
Android app show the two items as one. I wish the status light could stay on or blink to indicate staus change.
Otherwise there is no way to tell if devices are connecting to the Sat.

Router and Sat. about 50 ft a part. (two walls)Yes... it does show the SAT.. but I have a WD NAS wired to the SAT, and the NAS sends me emails when internet connectivity is lost. It happens sometimes twice a day. But the Orbi displays BLUE ring?
Without a Drive attached I may have never noticed. Would like to see a method to test back haul signal strength. I am 90% happy with the pair. I teach networking at a local college. I am writing leatures for MESH Technology. I am documenting issues for student projects and review. Hoping new updates will address drop issues.
Please let me know if additional details are needed. I have been in the networking field for 10+ years and teaching for 5 years. We spend about 16 weeks working with consumer and professional base networking hardware.
