RBE770 v1 satellite stops accepting WiFi clients – reboot immediately fixes it – V10.5.20.10_2.2.51
Hi all, I am experiencing a recurring issue with my Orbi 770 system and, after quite a bit of troubleshooting, this does not appear to be a normal roaming, coverage or client-side issue. Before ...
I’m experiencing very similar intermittent connectivity problems with an RBE771 + two RBE770 v1 satellites on V10.5.20.10_2.2.51.
I’ve done quite a bit of isolation testing. With both satellites powered off and only the RBE771 running, the network was stable. After bringing the satellites back into the mesh, I’ve seen intermittent client connectivity/session issues again, including an older Apple TV 4K losing connectivity and an iPhone retaining normal web access while other traffic/services fail.
I also physically swapped my two RBE770 satellites to determine whether the problem followed one particular unit, and so far it does not appear to be a simple single-satellite hardware failure.
My NETGEAR technical support entitlement has expired as well. I saw the comments here regarding the RBE770/RBE771 v1 beta firmware that appears to address front-haul/devices-behind-RBS issues.
I would be very interested in testing that beta and providing feedback if someone can point me in the right direction.
