Backhaul poor out of nowhere
I have a 3 satellite (one router) setup. all 3 satellites are more than 30 ft from the router. The setup has been working fine up until about a week ago and now one of my satellites is getting only g...
FW version on the RBR and RBS should be the same.
What model RBS do you have? RBS350s or 750s? There was a difference in kits that came the the 750 RBR. RBK750 came with RBS750s and RBK650 series had a RBR750 and RBS350s.
I've got the RBR750
What model RBS do you have?
2 of my satellites are 750 (firmware: 4.6.9.11)
1 of them is a 760 (firmware: 6.3.8.5)
I've tried swapping the satellites around but none of them will pull more than 130mbps in that room anymore (and they all work fine in my other locations).
I see, so the 760 may not work with the rest of the 750 series system. FW versions are not the same and I believe the 760 RBS came with a RBR760 series which was specific to the 760 series only thus the v6 FW and there has not been a v7 FW update for the 760 series. I recommend that you turn OFF the RBS760 and remove it from the system.

For the 750 series, you can leave v4 FW on the system if you want too and if it's working good for you, or update to more recent FW version v7. Would be up to you.
