Dreaded Random Satellite Blue Light is Back
After upgrading my RBR 750 and RBS's to V4.6.14.3 in Dec 2022, the system was rock solid and giving good WiFi speeds both inside and out side my house. I've only rebooted twice in 2 months! However, ...
Sorry for the delay in reporting back. Life got in the way of troubleshooting the annoying Sat Random Blue Light (RBL). I did a full reboot of my system, i.e., modem, router sats and 30+ WiFi devices. After a letting the entire system settle for 24 hours, I can happily report there have been no more RBLs noted.
I did notice that both my Sats are reporting the 2.4 gHz Wireless Mode as "Up to 240Mbps". Before the reboot, this was displaying "Up to 500 Mbps" on my closest Sat and "Up to 240 Mbps" on the furthest Sat. Possibly this mismatch of speeds was causing the RBL? Anyway, system is stable now with appropriate WiFi speeds all through my house and garage. 😁 Thanks for your help!
I think the RBS now report a live or actual speed connection rather than what is actually supported so this speed being displayed seems to be based on the signal, distance and quality state of the RBS while connected wirelessly to the RBR.
