Orbi RBR350 wired connections and internet constantly dying
Since the last 2-3 weeks my Orbi RBR350 keeps going down. Purple light off and on, Virgin Media tests showing all is fine. Reboot of Virgin Hub 3 then Orbi solves it. But my wired satellite doesn't...
Got a picture or link to this hub?
Hubs are not really recommended. I use a USB C to ethernet adapter on my Mac Book Pro.
Right I tested it again and disconnecting this Hub https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B086WWRRHZ killed my Orbi ethernet and I had to reboot my other wired ethernet PCs. So think that the Orbi does not like it when USB C hub is disconnected
I would not recommend using USB hubs like that for USB to ethernet connections.
These work however:

Thanks, yes I have one of those as well. The hub seemed a like a good idea to avoid too many cables but looks like I was wrong.
