New RBK753S - Stability / wifi connection reliability issues every other day so far? (fw V3.2.16.22)
I recently upgraded to the Orbi AX / Wifi 6 RBK753S (from the AC3000 RBK53). I never had any real issues with my RBK53, but since my ISP plan speed just went up again, I wanted to maximize throughput...

Something to try out, Disable AX mode on the RBR. Just the 5Ghz radio or both. Up to you.
Also set CTS values to 2347. Then retest the killer adapter.
Then maybe re-enabled AX both and re-test for consistency.

I just to clarify, overall it is workling very well. Just trying to avoid a disconnect / slowness issue every other day (even if only one occurence per day on which it occurs).

When you see this "disconnect" is this across both wired and wireless?
Is there any front LED indication on the RBR when this happens?

Thanks!
Great question. Unfortunately I did not get a chance to check since I was focused primarily on getting back to work on both occasions - I quickly rebooted things to get back online...
If / when the connectivity / speed issue happens again, I will check other devices to confirm if it is just wireless and also check the Orbi's LED (which is not visible from where I am sitting since the Orbi router is located behind a monitor and also facing the opposite direction...
