Video Streaming & Various Issues with RBK50
Hey everyone, Lately I've been having a few issues with my recently purchased Orbi Mesh System. It's the RBK50, which was purchased from BestBuy: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/netgear-orbi-ac3000-...

I have actually, and the lowest I've seen the speeds dip down to are around 425 or 450. Though typically they're very consistent.
And I haven't seen any particular issues with one over another.

What we normally advise is to determine whether the problem lies with the ISP or the Orbi by disconnecting the Orbi from the modem, connecting a computer directly to the modem, and checking for a difference. That's sort of impractical in this instance because the streaming is almost certainly to TV's that are nowhere near the modem and may not have ethernet jacks.
