Updated earlier this evening on my RBR750 and 2 RBS750 satellites, then took everything down and reset cable modem and the network. The biggest issue I have so far is that it seems to have degraded my throughput and range… When I run Speedtest on my iPad while I’m in the same room as the RBR750, I get a pretty decent reading — 11ms ping, 700+Mbps downstream, 40Mbps upstream — but if I move only one room away, my results are significantly lower: 25ms ping, 175-200Mbps downstream, 20Mbps upstream. Previous firmware versions did not show that much of a drop, and I had pretty good (and uniform) coverage throughout the house.
Also, the Connection Type for my satellites on my Attached Devices list appears to have gone a little squiffy post-update as well. At one point, 1 satellite was showing type as 2.4GHz and the other as wired (which it’s definitely not wired), but a few more refreshes of the list got them to finally both show 5GHz.
I noticed the same issue post update. The Wireless speed has reduced slightly from the previous version.
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed since last update?
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
Turn off and unplug modem.
Turn off router and computers.
Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on computers and rest of network.Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
Yes, all of those things were done. I took down the entire network (including cable modem) for the better part of 5 minutes last night before powering everything back on, and I did reboot several devices (laptop, iPad, iPhone, etc.) as part of that process as well.
