orbi RBK753 nightmare: extender keep getting disconnected from access point
Hello. I have a 200MB fiber in my home. I have a 200 square meters apartment. Few wifi access points near by and I have already checked which channel they are using. I have purcheased an Orbi Mesh W...
Try this:
TIM hub: 13 for 2,4Ghz and 36 for 5Ghz.
Orbi: 1 for 2,4Ghz and 48 for 5Ghz.
Be sure the TIM hub and RBR is 3 - 6 feet away from each other. Farther the better.
Hi again, you also wrote: "Be sure the TIM hub and RBR is 3 - 6 feet away from each other. Farther the better".... but the wire that connect the Obi AP to my TIM hub is not so long (maybe only 4 feet in lenght in total), so it is IMPOSSIBLE to have the AP so far away from the hub....
Get a longer cable? They come in many lengths...
About the idea to turn off the 5Ghz bandwith/frequency, what do you think? It is a good idea or not?
Again currently from my computer when I connect to the extender via wifi, I see only the name of the Orbi extender but do not know if I connect through the 2,4Ghz or 5Ghz...
5Ghz has better performances and faster connection rates.
