Orbi AX4200 (RBK752) not full loading websites/mobile apps
Hey All, In the past week or so, I have noticed that I have been struggling to connect to websites (amazon shopping and Orbi app in particular) via my WiFi signal. What happens is that it just par...

ISP Modem = Hitron CGNM-2250 DOCSIS 3.0 modem - Bridged and connected via ethernet cable to Orbi Router
Home Size = 1600sqft
Distance Between Satellite and Router = 20ft <Too close, try 30 feet.
WiFi Neighbours = Two (live in an attached townhouse)
I do not see the option to enable 40MHz coexistence ONLY, just had a check to enable 20/40MHz <Uncheck the box then apply sets 40Mhz only.
Do set CTS to 2347 on both 2.4 and 5GHz settings? Yes.
Haha ya I am new to this forum, am a little hesitant to try his solution as I seen it in other posts. I really wish there was a solution to the problem. I know its not an issue communicating with the satellite and router - aside from a few websites not loading, literally everything wrongs flawlessly. It almost seems like orbi restricts some websites intermittently for some reason
In order to even have an internet connection, I have no choice but to use the modem supplied by my ISP. The modem is bridged so the WiFi signal is non-existent coming from my ISP's modem. Like I was saying, this just started happening in the past week here and everything was working wonderfully prior to that
V3.2.18.1 on Both RBR750 and Satellite...The firmware was recently updated - However, I updated the firmware because I thought having out-dated firmware was the issue. I am literally cringing thinking about doing a factory reset because I have a stupid amount of smart devices in the home to re-configure haha
Websites partially loading I also have experienced. This could be related to
When the domainnames for certain links are not correctly resolved, the page simply gets stuck loading those images/data etc. It depends on the browser how it is handled. Chrome for example will make a second attempt. Other browsers like Firefox not. It is a really annoying issue, however Netgear is ignoring it.
Your only solution to this is to either return the Orbi AX (if still possible) or buy a third party router and place the Orbi AX in access point mode.
