RBK13 wifi disconnecting problems
Hello guys,
in the last few weeks im having some troubles with my ORBI RBK13 System(router is RBR40, and satellites is RBW30).
first problem is the wifi keeps disconnecting for 2-5 seconds and then comes back.
i would be glad if someone will help with this, it is very annoying.
Thanks alot !

Re: RBK13 wifi disconnecting problems
This is probably caused by the Satellite connectivity issues introduced in v2.3.1.60 as well as 2.3.5.30. I used to do the following to get around this issue:
- Switch off the both Satellite
- Go to Attached Devices in the web GUI and click on the "Disconnect" button beside both Satellites.
- Turn on the first Satellite and use a paper clip to factory reset the Satellite
- When the Satellite is up after factory reset, press the Sync button on the Satellite and then press Sync button on the Router
- When the Satellite is added after this procedure it should behave correctly.
- Repeat the same (Steps 3-4 above) for the second Satellite.
Good luck!

Your ISP modem is also a router and I think that this is the reason for the issues you're seeing. Having two routers and DHCP servers will cause many such issues.
You have two options:
- Bridge the Sagemcom router. Look in the manual for something like QuickBridge or similar and follow instructions.
- Keep the Sagemcom as your main router nad set Orbi into AP mode. You can do this in the web GUI under >> ADVANCED >> Advanced >> Router / AP Mode

How do you notice the disconnections on a wired computer? Can you please explain the symptoms you see.

Re: RBK13 wifi disconnecting problems
I connected my ps4 to the orbi via wifi, and after almost 3 hours i can confirm that there were no disconnections while in my phone i had several disconnections. I also tried my ipad and no disconnections there. Also tried my brother's phone and there are disconnections like in my phone. (We both have one plus devices 7/7 pro running android 10). another thing worth mentioning is that i replaced the sagemcom router with a better model and the disconnections is coming from it directly (it is bridged). do you have any idea what couls Couse the problems ?

When you say disconnections on the phone, do you mean that the wifi signal will disappear momentarily or only internet will disappear?
