SXK30 crashes - Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Dual-Band AX1800

Hi,

 

I have issues with two very similair setups:

 

Business:

1* SXK30 connected to modem in bridge mode (4 SSIDs enabled + guest network)

2* SXS30 sattelite with ethernet backhaul

3* Netgear Switch (different models, max 10 ports)

3* Synology NAS only used for storage

Some devices have static IPs

Firmware: V3.2.33.110

 

Home:

1* SXK30 connected to modem in bridge mode (1 SSID enabled)

2* SXS30 sattelite with ethernet backhaul

1* Synology NAS only used for Plex and downloads

All devices have static IPs

Firmware: V3.2.33.110

 

At home the SXK30 crashes often when the Synology starts downloading torrents, even when limited to 20 peers, 1 download maxed at 20mb/s. (This is why I mention them in the setup, there are no other factors the systems have in common).

 

In the office we have random moments where the SXK30 drops out briefly about once a day and completely crashes twice a week, haven't been able to pin point a specific moment, seems random.

 

Both at home and in the office the old WNDR3700 and WNDR3700v4 were able to manage everything just fine. Had Google Wifi at home for a brief moment, also without any issues. When changing to the new Orbi's both locations started having issues. The shop replaced one of the sets, but no result.

 

Any thoughts?
