12 feet is TOO close between the RBR and RBS. 30 feet distance is starting distance between the RBR and RBS.
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?

Procedure to Manually Firmware Update Orbi and Nighthawk Mesh systems. | NETGEAR Communities
Hello everyone. I've called Netgear support and got the help needed. The actual problem was that the firmware needing updating. Which is REALLY odd. I updated the firmware through the app and apparently that version was not the latest version. You'd need to get on the Netgear website to find the actual latest firmware. And it was a really long process of uploading the latest firmware to each satellite and then the router itself. Really unpleasant way to setup a new system but eventually sorted with the help of a call with Netgear. Must say the help through the phone was really good
