I have been having few issues with Orbi and they are listed below:
1) Over the last 4 weeks I have had to reset my router to factory settings 3 times as it would show connected but no throughput/traffic.
2) I havwe been using Open DNS settings for parental control and ever since 'Disney' parental control got launched the parental control settings get diabled on their own. This is even more nafelling as the admin rights are only with me and so dont know how they defaault to some state.
I have a case open with netgear ( 40544774) but the issue is not resilved yet.
Any comments or suggestions as both these obeservations have the first of its kind for me.
Model: RBK50| Orbi AC3000 High-Performance Tri-Band WiFi System
- When this happens do you see no throughput in all devices?
- What type of devices?
- Have you tried to only switch off/on wifi on the devices to see if this restore the issue? Have you tried power recycle on the router/satellite? Why did you need to factory reset?
- When this happens, how does the radio conditions in the surrounding look like, can you use a wifi analyser to see the active channels and the strength of each? Any neighbor's channels that are same as yours?
- Do you have any wired devices connected to your Orbi's?
- Do you have wired or wireless Backhaul? Is Daisy Chain activated?
