Orbi Overkill for 3 story town house?
I live in a 3 story townhouse. Each floor is fairly compact (Long but narrow). I bought an Orbi set (RBR850). I have the main router on the main floor of the house. I have a satellite on the top floo...
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router 📡 and satellite(s)🛰️?
What is the CAT# lan cable used in between the RBR and RBS? CAT6 is recommended.
Did you first wirelessly connect the RBS to the RBR, then ethernet connect them to the RBR?
Possible the interconnecting LAN cables from the remote locations to the RBR maybe faulty, thus RBS are not fully getting connected via ethernet. Something to test out, bring one or both to the same room as the RBR and ethernet connect them to the back of the RBR, by passing in wall ethernet cabling. Check to see if RBS status changes to wired here.
What FW version is loaded on the RBR and RBS?
