RBR760 Network issues
I have an RBR760 with 2 satellites and I'm having a lot of connectivity issues. Many of my wifi devices will intermittently connect to the network with Internet. When I can't connect to the Inter...
Connectivity issues are with all devices (even a wired TiVo).
I believe AX is activated if it is activated as a default setting. I don't believe I have any AX devices.
I'm using 2 wired TiVo boxes, a wired security system (which hasn't had connectivity issues), a wired SmartThings controller, wired telephone modem, a wired MoCA device for my TiVo network, and an ethernet switch to handle the extra wired devices.
None of my satellites are wired.
On the wired TiVo that is having issues: When it's connected via Ethernet, it sees the other devices on my network (through the MoCA network if you're familiar with that), but it doesn't get an internet connection. This allows me to watch on my other devices, but it only updates the guide info when I'm connected to the internet. To get around this issue, I disconnect the main TiVO from ethernet and connect it to the network via WiFi about once per week to download the info. Then I reconnect it to ethernet so my other TiVO boxes can connect to the main box and watch.
I don't believe the satellite distance is causing the issue. Even when the satellites aren't connected, I'm having the same connectivity issues.

Orbi is sensitive to IP loops, and devices that both use Ethernet and wifi can sometimes cause such loops. Do you have the possibility to disconnet those devices from your network and see if this will have any change to this issue.
