who help me with my ORBI RBR50 and RBS50 with firmware 2.0.1.4

What is the model# of the NG router behind the modem?

What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem?

What is the Mfr and model# of the 48 port switch? Is this a managed or non-managed switch? Managed switches will cause problems for Orbi systems.

I would do a factory reset since you upgrade FW and set up from scratch.

Also disable the following:

Beamforming, MIMO, Daisy Chain, and Fast Roaming.

Set manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz, Any unused channel on 5Ghz

WPA2 and AES only.

Hi, 

 

I bought this ORBI system 2 weeks ago.(RBR50 and RBS50).

after installing these devices in AP mode, and after update, I encounter continious problems with Wifi.

Let me explain how this is setup : 

MODEM --> router netgear --> HP 48 port switch
--> wire from switch to RBR50, set to AP
--> wire from switch to RBS50

 

so as everybody describes, the wire on the RBR50 goes NOT in the yellow WAN port but in the first free network port at the back.

This causes that the RBR50 is always on with purple led. (when I put it in the yellow wan port, then the satellite is never found)

the RBS50 is 15 meter further away and is always changing from amber to blue.

 

if I do some test, internet is okey, when I do a test on the smartphone with the Orbi app, both RBR and RBS are found.

 

but now here it come's, the wifi is dropping every 5 min, this causes devices to be disconnected, and some can not be connected anymore unless I reboot the RBR50 or I reboot the device.

this is getting from worse to hell.

 

whatever we do or try, nothing seems to solve this and this is by far a hugh problem, since we use wifi here for commercial use.

 

Is there anybody who can give me some clue's how to solve this, since it's almost not workable.

also our doorbell and other smart stuff is on this wifi but they are constant kicked of the wifi.

when I do the test with a older wifi router, then all is okey, but ofcourse that's not the way it should be.

 

so I hope anybody can give me a clue how to fix it, or how to deal with it.

 

thx for any help.

Deech
