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...

I had the same problem, but it's now fixed. Wired speed from router to ISP over 200 Mnps, same on wifi for router and satellites. After 2-3 days, wifi when connected to router dropped to 40, but both wifi through satellites and wired from router to ISP remained over 200. So, it was solely a problem with connecting by wifi to router itself.
My problem was LG smart TV. I erased wifi internet connection from TV setup. After resetting router, the wifi speeds haven't dropped in over 3 weeks. Before, it routinely dropped every 2-3 days.
Go through everything connected to the router itself, disable one at a time, reset and wait to see what fixes it.
My setup:
Firmware 2.5.1.8
RBR50, RBS50 x2 - no daisy chain
Armor Bitdefender active

Geddy007 Identical problem here (RBR20+2 RBS20). Full speed for 4-7 days, then drops to 40~45Mbps, but only to WiFi devices connected to the router, not the satellites (strange). I tried disconnecting every device to no avail, but I forgot two - the Samsung smart TV, and a little Netgear dongle that connects to the dish satellite box to download the guide info. I will definitely try those next...
I think you are the only one who actually solved this problem!
- Geddy007Nov 29, 2020AspirantFingers crossed - let me know how it goes. I haven't had the problem since I blocked the TV.
