Why is my router doing this ?
RBR 50 Router,
firmware 2.7.4.24
Pinging router from any wifi device gives this, even if the device is next to the router.
Have tried with all devices removed and just one device connected, still the same,
If done via ethernet then no problem.
Nothing being downloaded/uploaded.
Did have satellite attached but that died after firmware update and is on way back to netgear, have removed the satellite from router via gui.

I have the same RBR50 and this does not match my experience.
"Any WiFi device" is a bit vague. It would be helpful to know
- What this device is
- Which WiFi channel this device is using
- What the device Network settings say about the connection Link Rate (often under "Advanced settings")
- How many nearby WiFi systems are on the same channel (using a WiFi analysis tool)
