Zoom is continously displaying low bandwidth and screen sharing lags
I've been trying to solve a similar issue on RBR850 with three RBS850. running Zoom. Zoom is continously displaying low bandwidth and screen sharing lags (although it get there in the end)
I followed all the suggested setting changes including:
Disable Guest network
Wireless Settings: 2.4Ghz Channel to 01
Wireless Settings: 5Ghz Channel to 48
Disable SIP ALG on (set to open)
Advance Wireless Settings: enable WMM (2.4Ghz) 2347 (Short Preample/50%)
Advance Wireless Settings: enable WMM (5.0Ghz) 2347 (Short Preample/100%)
IPV6 - Get Automatically from ISP ( I can't see how to turn off other that use a DNS Server)
IP Adddress Assignemtn - Auto Config
Traffic Meter is enabled with traffic volume contro by no limit
My internet speed seems fine 109 Mbps download /40Mbps upload - backhaul status reports as good
I'm using a Mac for Zoom which is wireless connnected to the RBR850 router, and have tried both wirelessly connecting and wired connected to the satellite.
The same lag and still the warning exists.
The firmware i old V4.6.9.11, so that is next up.
Just wondered if you or anyone else had resolved or have a recommended firmware version that work without disrupting all else?

There is newer firmware:

As an observation, people seem less interested in diagnosing problems with older firmware versions.

As an observation, people seem less interested in diagnosing problems with older firmware versions.I'd also start by updating the firmware.
Does the problem happen only on wifi? Or is this also an issue with ethernet?
Before updating:
Same happens with Traffic Meter disabled?
Disable IPv6 on the RBR and test Zoom?
Enable SIP ALG and test?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6A STP is recommended.Does this happen with the RBS turned OFF?

FYI, Zoom calls from the Zoom App and web browser don't use SIP. Which appears to be the case here (connecting from a Mac).
But if DeaneHornsby is dialing in from a SIP device, then this test would be useful.
I leave SIP ALG enabled on all my routers. Haven't had any problems with it being enabled and Zoom and Teams all work finr. Last meeting with NG was over zoom and worked well with my Mac Book Pro 2018. Why I suggested testing it anyways. Also SIP ALG is something we test for in beta projects to help check this as well.
