Forced into Orbi SXR80 Router due to BR200 issues... Causing major issues with business wireless APs
I'm trying to resolve consistent network drops across all of my devices which is rendering my entire network unusable in a remote work environment. I had to separate out the "IOT" network as a number...
From various posts that discuss consistent network disconnections, it seems like there is a persistent issue that Netgear isn't talking about. These issues didn't exist when I was using the BR200 router. I've worked through every possible setting to try and figure out how to fix it but even Netgear is unwilling to provide support on this (it started 95 days after the purchase of the SXR80 to replace the BR200), not to mention the completely incompetent phone tech support who transfers people around from person to person, due to the inability to access Insight or lack of training on specific devices.
What sucks is approximately $2000 invested is not effectively junk unless I rebuild everything from scratch piece by piece to figure out what hardware is causing the issue. I can only assume it is some configuration in the SXR80 that doesn't work well with the WAX610/WAX630 APs.
