Is the backhaul 5ghz stronger than ordinary 5 ghz?
So my question is this; I have the AC3000 system with 1 router and 1 satellite. I have tried two placements so far and I'd like some input if I should add another satellite or not. First ...
I believe that the Orbi backhual has a pretty good range. However I have a situation similar to you and having the Orbi so close cause the disconnect issue to appear for me. You can certainly try but when I did it seems to cause more disconnect. However that was before the newest firmware
Thanks for replying.
20 feet away is long enough that the the TV won't connect to the 5 ghz network at all, so I guess that distance between the router and satellite will be acceptable?
