MR80 + 2 MS80 stopped working
After 3 months of working without a problem, MS80s will no longer sync with my MR80. The MR80 works perfectly with WAN and LAN but refuses to find the MS80s. I have tried: - Reset all 3 devices an...
Ok, Interesting. Wondering if it could be a distance thing maybe.
What is the SQ Ft of your home?
I'm finding the MK system to be kind of interesting. I had to turn OFF one of my MS that was ethernet connected. Found one of my iphones kept saying it was connected to the wifi but no internet on the screen. Also my Apple TV unit would not get connected to the system until I rebooted the MR and 3 daisy chained LAN switches after I found that the MRs web page wouldn't respond after I tried enabling debug logging and tried to collect he logs. ATV connected after everything was power cycled. Not sure if I should turn on the 2nd MS or not. Otherwise system has been working ok.
- Man! So complicated!
House is 3,800 sqft.
For me, the living room MS is where the PS5 is hardwired. Then when it acts up, the PS5 doesn’t automatically fail over onto the wifi; I have to manually change it.
Where the Nighthawk shines is in the quantity/quality of devices. I have 40 devices in total and quality has never been an issue. My NVR system alone has 8 hardwired cameras and 6 wifi ones. Those 6 wifi ones feed 4k footage into the NVR 24/7 and they cause no bandwidth issues for the rest of the devices. I couldn’t get that kinda quality of network from the 1st get EERO.
Fingers crossed the Nighthawk works out.OK, so is both MS ethernet connected to the MR or mixed wired and wireless?
What Brand and model Switch do you have in between the MR and MS?What CAT# LAN cable are you using? CAT6 is recommended.
- No switch
Moto 3.1 modem to MR, wireless to both MS’s.
