RBR750 - unstable, satellites keep disconnecting
Hi all, Starting to lose my mind on this. RBR750 + 3 RBS750 satellites running in AP mode. I have a separate DSL router which acts as DHCP; the Orbi is purely wifi. We've got a fairly busy ho...
Thought I'd update this because things have settled down a bit. I have re-sited the nodes (mostly forced due to a Fibre upgrade) but this means the Router is now more central and I now just have 2 APs which seem to make sense.
So far I am not seeing the same issue where nodes would disconnect and then not recover.
A week later and all fine and then randomly all have disconnected. No rhyme or reason, you only find out when phone switches to 4G.
So frustrating
And the RBR and all 3 RBS were downgraded to v.21 and were all factory reset and setup from scratch?
Yes.
Now running with the RBR and one RBS.
Ok, let us know how that goes. đ€
Will do. One thing that seems to occur is that when the RBS disconnect, then the other RBS seem to interfere/prevent the reconnection. These past few times, the RBR has still been accessible via wifi.
I don't know if this is happening or why it might be happening if so. But in theory with only one RBS running then if it does disconnect then it should be able to reconnect (since there are no others powered on.)
Let see how it goes. May at some point, try each one of the other RBS, one at a time, connected to the RBR to see if those can keep connected to the RBR.
It's a good shout... because at this point I am honestly starting to wonder if there's some hardware failure going on
One way to may help find that out. đ
