Software bug discovered for rbr20 and rbs20 (rbk23) units on 2.3.5.26
Okay so this is long so I will first provide links to my findings https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi/Odd-Ping-bug-I-have-discovered/m-p/1804890#M71368 https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orb...
So this still will happen even with wired. If I ping a device that is connected to another sattleite that is giving me the issue then it will give me the destanatio host unreachable. I can ping the sattleite but the deivce connected wirellessly won't ping.
Very possibly related
In summary, I added a RBS20 to an existing RBK50 (RBR50+RBS50 setup)
While the Internet works fine for all devices (WAN-LAN), LAN communication between devices has gone for a total toss (which was not the case before.- and switching off the RBS20 resolves all the issues so the problem is definitely with the RBS20).
Been struggling with this for the last few day.
Several lost hours later, have got to a non optimal workaround ...
Unbelievable how bad Orbi QA is :(
