Slow WiFi 2.4 GHz on Orbi
We have an RBR50 with 2 Satellites we Just Started to have slow Speed on the 2.4 GHz WiFi only, we have had the RBR50 for just over 1 Year and have never had any Speed issues, we have not moved any...
Hi, Thanks for all the replies
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too? Arris SURFboard SB8200 DOCSIS 3.1
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft? 1700, We have had the system up for just over a year and have not moved anything we can be sitting in front of the router a few feet but it does not help with the 2.4 GHz
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many? Auto
Try disabling the following and see:
Armor, Circle, Daisy Chain, Fast Roaming, IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s)Armor, Circle, Daisy Chain, are disabled
Also what speeds are you expecting to see on 2.4Ghz?
Speed still good on 5Ghz?
What speeds do you pay for UP and DOWN from you ISP?

I disconnect both satellites and seated 3 feet away from the RBR50 and tested the 2.5 GHz with both my phone and laptop my ISP speed its only 50 Mbps
Also what speeds are you expecting to see on 2.4Ghz? 200 Mbps or more
Is speed still good on 5Ghz? YES
What speeds do you pay for UP and DOWN from you ISP 260 Mbps Down and 12 Mbps UP
I also did wifi analyzer software and I only thing I see is hidden network from the satellites what must be the backhaul will attach photos
