Nighthawk mesh Wifi 6 MR 60 and satellite
Hello, So I bought the Nighthawk Mesh Wifi 6 with 1 satellite about 1.5 years ago and I'll be honest it has given me troubles since day 1. The connection is strong and stable for periods of up t...
A couple things to check.
Does the issue happen with devices that are connected to the satellite? Or devices connected to the router? or both?
Does it happen to only wireless devices?
Are wired devices stable?
what modem/gateway do you have?
Hello!
Appreciate the reply. So here my answers to your questions.
A couple things to check.
Does the issue happen with devices that are connected to the satellite? Or devices connected to the router? or both?
It seems to happen to both.
Does it happen to only wireless devices?
It only happens to wireless devices.
Are wired devices stable?
Wired devices are stable!
what modem/gateway do you have?
I have the Netgear Nighthawk CM1200. The modem and the router and satellite were installed at the same time about 1.5 years ago.
I'd start at square 1 for testing. .
For testing, power off the satellites and just see if devices are stable (might not be fast) if connected directly to the router.
that'd be key for me to figure out if I was in your shoes because if its not stable with just the router, the satellites aren't going to be stable either because its a dual band system without the dedicated backhaul the tribands have.
Sounds like a good a first step. I'll try that right now.
