Sporadic Ping Spikes over 5Ghz wifi.
I recently purchased this Orbi Modem/Router combo system so I could get more coverage in my house. It connects and reaches all areas fine now, except one issue. I like to play videogames, particularl...
The 5Ghz wireless channel, as the post says.
Do you see a similar spike when you ping the Satellite vs Router?
For examples:
1. telnet to Satellite and ping the Router
2. then ping google.com from Satellite
3. telnet to Router and ping the Satellite
4. then ping google.com from Router
This will give an idea if there's an issue with Orbi wireless backhaul.
Do you have similar problem when playing the game via wired connection?
I factory reset and turned off the Daisy-chain mode (whatever it was called) at has seemed to resolve the problem. Opon doing so, the backhaul status also went from poor to good, so idk what was going on there. Anyway, thanks for the help.
Update: Ping is still spiking to around 1200+ and then returning back to normal. I thought I had fixed it, but apparently. Still not sure what the issue is.
Darian2498 , can you head over here to check your backhaul signal?
I'm connected to the main unit, not the satellite. Is it still necessary?
