RBR850 needs a reboot every 2-4 days - how to stop?
I wanted to share with you a problem I have been seeing with my RBR850 installation plus 4 satellites. Periodically, maybe every 2-4 days, the performance in streaming from multiple Apple TV apps (li...
Possible or your wifi environment is getting too saturated with wifi signals having that many RBS online. Remember, these things cover up to a good decent range so the wifi over lap will be out there a ways. So this should allow for more coverage and range using less RBS units. I get great coverage with just two or some times even 1 RBS in a 5000 sq ft home including basement.
Keep the 4th RBS as a backup in case something happens.

FURRYe38 here is my update!
It's been 4 days and things are still working like a champ. I tried to use the Apple TV a lot, and it's been perfect. With Speedtest on the Apple TV it's been a pretty consistent 270 Mbps down, 40 Mbps up.
So it does seem like with a 4th satellite, the RBR either got confused, or due to location things would get messed up. It's been running fine with 3 satellites, I guess I didn't need the 4th one. This seems like some sort of bug to me.
This morning I turned Ethernet Port Aggregation back on - we'll see if it breaks or not!
