Nest Thermostat Batteries LOW on a new ORBI AX setup

No.
Only thing I found was that with mine, being so close to the RBR, 5 feet, was having problems with the NEST. I found that when I moved the RBR away from the one NEST controller, 20-25 feet, the NEST controller started working with out draining the battery. Also was said that this is also a NEST controller issue as well that NEST needs to fix it on there side as these controllers ping pong back and forth on there own when there is more than 1 signal source in play, i.e. RBR and 1 or 2 RBS. Its also recommemeded to install the C power wire to your NEST from the main central AC system to help avoid the battery draining. You'll need to consult your systems mfr wiring diagram to find out which connection that is.

I am also getting this failure, notwithstanding the 'check connection' running! Furthermore other shares at the disk worried (that's connected to a PC as you can checkhere) have labored exceptional.

I'm having the same issue. Both thermostats die. I've been charging them with USB cables for months now. They're on different floors and each are pretty close (within 20 feet) of the base and satellite. Base is on the first floor, satellite is on the second floor almost directly above it. Firmware is up to date.
Do I bother calling support on this? Can they offer any help?
