Hi,
my rbs350 satelite is ocassionally blinking white and then it is illuminated in blue.
This occurs in the night and wakes me up, during daytime and overall it occurs after a certain amount of time.
I just want to figure out, whethere or my network has been corrupted by some kind of botnetwork.

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS📡 to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and Orbi system been performed since last update?

Can you move the RBS a bit farther away, say 35 feet?
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?Also might remove the RBS from the RBRs web page. Then factory reset the RBS by pressing the reset button for 15 seconds then release. Then resync the RBS to the RBR.
