A ploy to buy the new Wifi 7 routers???

Since updating the firmware on my RBR750s the satellites have intermittently stopped working, however, previously they have worked perfectly over their life with no problems at all.

 

Is this a ploy to stop users with RBR750s using them and force them to buy the new WiFi 7 product? 

 

I would ask support, but my routers are out of support, and I dont really want to pay for support if this model is being purposefully phased out

  • What version of FW did you load on the system. There are known issues with the latest v.31 version of FW. If you updated to to this, please downgrade the RBS FIRST to v.21 then the RBR lastly.
