Current Firmware = v4.6.3.16
Netgear CM2050V Modem
3200 Sq ft - 2 level home
Satilite is on floor 1, Router is on Floor 2. I would estimate roughty 25-30 ft apart with a floor between.
It is on auto for channel. I can certainly try a channel suggested.
I have 2 neighbors but they do not have wifi. I have a neibor across the street that does have wifi and appears weak in my home.
Traffic, Circle, Armor, and Ip6 are disabled already.
I do not understand the coexistence/CTS part but I can certainly change that if it could help.
I do have devices connected to guest at all times. I am guessing it is usually 5-9 devices on guest and the remaining 60+ were on the main SSID.
The most recent factory reset was done a few days ago. I do not know if a firmware update has been completed since the factory reset before that.
