I am afraid I did not understand your suggestion.
I have no problem with wired devices. So, if I will disconnect all wireless devices and all wired (except one PC), how I can troubleshoot wireless ping?
Thanks

Hi
I just bought the RBK53 set and updated all the units to the firmware version 2.1.4.16 last night
However, there are lots of problems with it.
Attach the router to the internet (without any satelites attached), the router is able to give me speed up to 500 MB/s using speedtest app on my iphone.
When i attach 1 of the 2 satelites via ethernet backhaul and place the satelite about 50 metres away from the router, the speed reported dropped to 90MB/s. Why?
When i powered off the satelite, the network speed went back to 500 MB/s again.
Why is there a drop in network speed when the satelite is attached?
