Orbi RBR850 / RBS850 – Constant IoT disconnects (Shelly, robot vacuum, etc.)

Have you tried putting some of the problem devices on the IoT network?

Do you have other WiFi networks running? Or do you must mean that the devices were stable before you installed thhe 850?

The devices was stable on previous router.
But also a month ago I saw no issues, they were always on.
What happned a month ago you ask? I had one rbr and one wireless rbs.
On 01 Dec I got an extra rbs and connected it via cable further away from rbr.
Now it doesnt work, no matter which combination of rbr and rbs' I use.
