Orbi 852 losing connection to wifi constantly

Hi All,

 

I am Constantly losing wifi connection on my Orbi RBK852. Units which are with cable works fine.

In the App the RBR850 changes between online and offline.

RBS850 (satellite) is online all the time.

I tried to reset, updating to newest software, restarting, but nothing is working.

 

Firmware: v4.6.8.2

 

Hope this is solved and i just couldn't find it.

 

Best regards

Kim

    What's the status show on the RBS web page. 

    There are some known issues happening with Orbi app which maybe falsely reporting router operation.

        Id you first downgrade the RBS then the RBR lastly?

         

        Does pressing the reset button for 15 seconds then release and connect a wired PC to the RBR should bring up the setup wizard at HTTP and 192.168.1.1 in a web browser?
