RBR850 / RBS850 | Wired Backhaul | Satellite Limited to 100Mbps
Hoping someone else has had this issue and may be able to steer me in the correct direction. I have an Orbi RBR850 and RBS850 setup. The RBS850 is wired to the RBR850 via in-home ethernet wiring ...
100% agree with plemans. I had this exact same issue and was banging my head almost literally againt the wall to solve this. It turned out to be a small 1.5Ft patch panel cable that must have had a tempermental break or termination. I replaced it (while trying to troubleshoot the in-wall cable) and suddenly the issue was gone permanently. Replaced that patch cable and I haven't had an issue again since.
Thanks for the responses, folks.
Swapping out the patch cable from the wall to the satellite seems to have made a remarkable difference. So frustrated that I didn't try this sooner.
Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Enjoy. 📡Glad it was a simple fix!
surprising how frequently the little cables or the ends on cables go bad.
