Hi Furrye38, thanks for your swift reply.
System is working but it is very slow and will often have time outs where nothing happens.
House is about 2.500 sqf over two floors. RBR than about 16ft to RBS1 (hallway) and than some 30ft to RBS2 (back in the house near my office) and also some 30ft to RBS3 (first floor).
I will try the sequence you suggest and let you know soon after that.
Thanks again.

For that size of home, the RBR and just one RBS would be needed. Maybe two RBS with the power on the RBR set to 25%.
30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR 📡 and RBS 🛰️ to begin with depending upon building materials when wired or wirelessly connected.
Ok, it is a big concrete building with thick floors (concrete and steel).
We started up everything in the order you suggested and it seems to have improved drastically. If i understand you correctly it is best to put the power % down in the advanced settings? Only for the RBR?
I'm going to stick with the first RBS close to the RBR because I started with two and it did not work at all. For 1,5 years it was stable, until the firmware update.But I'm glad this reboot in this order appears to be working!
Thanks,
Remko
OK, understood about concrete building then. Ya seems you might need what you have.
Glad the power cycle cleared things up. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Enjoy. 📡- Installed this, had some issues with One of the RBS but after unpacking the zip with the firmware and two factory resets it also got updated.
The IOT that never went away with the old firmware is gone. The app does not seem to like the firmware. The RBS that worked right away is showed as unconnected but if I log on to the RBS it has devices connected and is running as it should. Got big hopes for this firmware!
