- Which of your devices are wired?
Will you be able to disconnect all wired devices, reboot Orbi Router and see if you’ll still see the same issue with wireless devices after few days?- What would doing that accomplish?
Wired devices are: 1 Apple TV, Comcast DVR, wink hub, Yamaha AVR and a Craftsman garage door controller.
