RBK852 can't speed test via orbi app but can speed test with other app

Hello

 

My RBK852 just setup 11-10-2020. FW aleady updated.

 

I can use the orbi speed test when just finised setup. However, i tryed to test again few hours later. it doesn't work. "Connection Failure".

 

I can use "Speedtest" IOS app is no problem. 

 

Why ?

    I have reset, power off and still the same problem.


    The problem has nothing to do with the Orbi system. It is an IOS issue with the app. Make sure you are running the latest IOS, then reset your network and re-join the WIFI. You may have to uninstall and reinstall the Orbi app and reinstall it.
