More detail would be helpful. Orbi 750 systems provide 2.4G WiFi signals
What part of the installation process is failing?

- tortiseshellAspiranthey thxs… i wouldnt call it a fail but connection to more distant cams struggle to pull up consistently, esp if other devices are consuming bandwidth. i have a two story house. router is upstairs in an office. 2 sats are on the first floor. simplisafe outdoor cams want 6mb each for upload. i have 40+ of upload bandwidth… simplisafe solution is to put an extender in to help the connection at 2.4 ghz… i just want to get a low cost no bufoonery netgear solution that is compatible with my orbi mesh. so looking for advice which product others think will accomplish my need… open to ideas… thxs!
- tortiseshellAspirantshould also add… simplisafe indoor cams want 2mb for 1080 rez… no mention of their outdoor cams requirements until i talked with them… ugh… so i currently have 4 outdoor cams and 1 indoor cam set to 480 to ease the upload… i sure would like to get to 1080… i know my wifi and isp speeds are good… so hoping an extender will improve my situation.
