ORBI RBR850 -- frequent disconnects to WoW server
Suddenly for no reason, since this morning, every 15-30 minutes my connection with WoW (World of Warcraft game) drops. I get disconnected but can quickly reconnect within the minute. For context, my ...
The router and satellites are installed in straight line with line of sight and no walls blocking (one window between first and second satellite. Dis connect occurs for devices connected to router or first satellite. Second satellite has no devices connected because it is in a backyard observatory.
Distance from router to first satellite is 35 feet. From first to the second satellite is about 40-45 feet. No signal loss at any point and speed at the furthest satellite is about 80% of speed at the modem.
By the way, the RBK853 is only two weeks old and worked fine with the original firmware.
Also, do I need to go back to version 3.2.9.2?
You can.
What does Netgear recommend? I am still within the timefram to return or exchange the product.
The issue shows up suddenly. For example, I was repplying to the post, and sudenly my wifi signal strenght icon showed no signal. I reconnected and has full strenght.

If anything doesn't seem to correct the issue, you may want to return the system to place of purchase.
