Strange Control Panel Behavior for Orbi 6 and 6E
Hi All - I have been going back and forth between Eero and Orbi systems for the past couple of years - and my Eero 6s started dropping connections constantly, and troubleshooting didn't fix the i...
Orbi is in AP mode. Araknis is the DHCP server.
Not necessarily asking for help to try to fix the behavior. Instead, asking this:
If my system is still working exactly as if the satellites ARE connected, does it really matter if they show up in the control panel? Am I potentially missing out on any functionality other than having to update firmware individually?
Thus far, it seems I am not. As mentioned, wifi clients switch when they are supposed to - and speeds are as expected Wired and Wireless from the satellites. It's just the control panel. But I am not knowledgable enough about the Orbi software/hardware to know if I am missing out on something else.
