Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.

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 wirelessly connected.

Hoping someone can help me troubleshoot this:

 

I have an RBR850 with 1 satellite. I recently moved the satellite to another position in the second floor of the house, so I could wire it directly to the router. I did the factory reset on the satellite, connected the wire and configured. It shows up in my orbilogin app as connected and the backhaul type is "wired".

 

I am trying to get the roku express in our 3rd floor bedroom to connect and after a lot of hassle, i get it to connect, but i see a severe drop in signal strength (roku ultra wired directly to router is navigating at 78-80mbps while the signal strength of the roku in the 3rd floor is 5mbps (on a good day).

 

I am wondering why the connection is so poor and if there might be something I missed in the setup from wireless to wired.

 

Any helpful tips appreciated.
