Is anyone seeing performance issues?
I updated the devices (1 RBR, 2 RBS) (RBK752 + 1 added Satellite). I have rebooted the router once.
A wireless printer sitting right next to the RBR, got a "weak signal" error on it. Not sure how that could even be possible.
Various items are dropping internet connections... my phone wireless had the ! like the internet was down... but other devices were all fine..
Some streaming boxes (FireTV) are buffering now...
I will say that I have NOT powered off/on (other than a reboot) the satellites. Everything is connected... but just, slow. In fact one satellite for about 5 minutes, was showing it was "Wired" to the RBR across the house.... which is not true. After about 5 minutes it changed to 5Ghz Wireless connected.
thoughts?
When you power OFF the RBR after the FW update, it's best to power OFF the RBS as well. Even the ISP modem. Then back on with the ISP modem first, RBR then RBS.
