Nergear Orbi RBR 50 orbi App.
Hello ,
I have a RBR 50 with 2 sattelites . In the orbi app, since recently , the 5 ghz network cannot be found although is it working .
With the speedtest in the app only 2.4 ghz is measured ( around 220 mbps) . I have a gigabite connection .
Also in the anatitics in the app. if i filter to only 5ghz , nothing showes . When i use the ookla speedtest , or kabel test speed is upto 925 mbps .
How is it possible that the app is not seeing the 5ghz network ?
Thanks for the reply
kind regards ,

I think your device must not be scanning right. Reason I say that is that 2.4ghz won't hit 220mbps. Its a slower network and sensitive to interference.

Oke ,
but when filtering in the app the 5ghz is not visible as if it's not there .
Speedtest in ookla shows the 5ghz at 600 mbps . Cabled speedtest Orbi shows 925 mbps.
It's just the Orbi app. that doesn't find the 5Ghz .connection
