RBR750, iPhone and iPad will not stay connected. Switch to guest, all is good
Hello,
I have an Orbi RBR750 system (selected RBR50 above as I couldn't find the 750 option) with 2 satellites (RBS750).
About 1 month ago, I noticed my iPhone and iPad would not conntect automatically when unlocked. Had to go to settings nearly 100% of the time. Thought it was my devices. Happened to notice at church that both connected flawlessly. Came home, switched to my guest network and they both connect automatically...without fail.
My question...what happened on my primary network (non-guest) on my Orbi and how do I fix this so my devices re-connect automatically.
Thank you,
Scott
