Severe Packet Loss on Orbi RBR50
To whom this may concern, I have purchased my Orbi RBR50 last year at a local BestBuy, since I needed a stable Wi-Fi extension that can extend my connection due to my router being at the opposite...
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?What are you testing with to check packet loss?
I'd turn OFF all RBS and all wired and wireless devices and test with just one wired PC connected at the ISP modem and check packet loss here first using pingplotter.com. Then test with the RBR in the middle.

I tried turning off the satellites and disconnecting each device individually until I found one that was causing packet loss.
After that process, I found out that it was my PS4 that was using up majority of the Wi-Fi bandwidth.
The games I used to benchmark the packet loss issues were Brawlhalla and Fortnite.
I will keep you guys updated if the packet loss issues occur again. Thanks for the help!
