Re: My Orbi RBRE960 and RBRS960 network will sometimes just drop the wifi networks

Any progress on this?

I have the exact same problem. Used the set first in the regular router mode. Thought that the router mode was causing the problem as my internet provider uses a modem that cannot be set to bridge mode. Happened at least once or twice a day. Sometimes around the same times although never exactly at the same time. Switched to AP mode as I saw that this fixed the problem for some people. Although it is happening less often it still happens almost daily.

I have one base and two satellites. 3 floors to cover. The base is on the first floor, 1 satellite on the ground floor and 1 on the top floor. The satellites are connected through a wired backhaul using a "dumb" switch.

Only 1 router won't cover the entire house because we use reinforced concrete and double laminated glass in our houses. Great for structural integrity and insulation but it is really bad for wifi or other radio signals.

I do have a lot of neighbours who are directly adjacent to my house with also very strong WiFi signals.

I used to Orbi app to get a good idea of strengt of the different wifi signals.

Anyway the wifi signal will drop randomly. Sometimes the sattelite led will glow purple/magenta and then go back to blue and then turn the led off. Sometimes it doesn't happen and the wifi will turn back on after a couple of minutes.

It is really annoying, especially during meetings when working remote.

If it's a bug I hope they fix it with the next update
