WiFi Slow after 2-3 days until reboot?
I'm really at my wits end fighting with this Orbi System. I've read all the relevant forum posts I could find and am still struggling. I have 200 Mb/s service from Xfinity. Orbi RBR50 is connecte...
Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
1.
2.4 GHz channel is 1
5 GHz channel is 36
Neither channel setting matters, I've tried them all...
2. It happens when attached to the main router, I'm not certain about the connection to the satellite. I can try to test that...
3. Backhaul is wireless.
4. Google Home Guest mode is set to off. The Amazon Echos (dots) don't have a guest mode
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.- I suspect that one of the wired devices is causing loops in the system which will affect the wireless devices.
Another question: are you sure that the devices are not moving to the 2.4 GHz band which is limiting the throughput on those devices?- Yes, the slowdown affects all devices, regardless of the band.
I'm not sure I follow how wired devices could be causing this? What is a "loop in the system"?
I should add, I have a NETGEAR GS308-100PA switch connected to the orbi, and my wired devices are connected to that switch. Speed of my wired devices never slows down, it's always ~200Mbps.
