ORBI WIFI 6 struggling with security cameras to connect all
Hi Netgear users I am in NZ and have around 20 security cameras, 3 different models all the same make. They seem to struggle to all stay connected. Indoor and outdoor cameras. House is only 10...
Its the battery powered cameras which are having issues. They only work when triggered.
When I want to view them from my mobile when I am away the battery ones are sometimes failing to connect. Not all just some, not always the same ones.
The router is provided by my Internet provider.
The house is 100 sq mtrs.
The house is a only 8 years old and constructed of wood. No concrete or brick
What I want to know is do I need a satellite or extender to mitigate this issue.

What Firmware version is currently loaded on the Orbi system?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
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 wired or wirelessly connected.
