RBR850 / RBS 850 - wi-fi band choice / selection
I have the RBR850 plus 2 RBS-850 satellites. My issue arises from security cameras, specifically Logitech 961-000490 Circle View models. The cameras state they need the 2.4 GHz band - we have the 2.4...
I'd contact the camera Mfr and ask for information regarding there cameras. They should know what they support.
The one star reviews on Amazon for this camera are sort of brutal.
Either Logitech is totally lying about the specifications (which claim 2.4G WiFi) or something is seriously wrong with the Orbi. Manufacturers put 2.4G WiFi chips in products because (a) these chips cost less than dual band chips, (b) 2.4G WiFi has greater range than 5G, and (c) 1024 cameras do not need much bandwidth. These chips cannot detect any other radio signal (not television, not AM radio, ... and not 5G WiFi.)
