My Orbi voice keeps randomly disconnecting from alexa in general. As I reset up it works for a little bit but then a day later it randomly says to check alexa / orbi app settings. For whatever reason everything is connected fine upon checking, but it always gives me that type of error. Anyone know a fix?
It will specifically speak this message indefinitely after a few days after resetting it. Like example I reset via the app now and it listens to me, but probably 3 days from now will start doing it again which is annoying. Is there a previous firmware that runs better that I should downgrade to maybe?
I currently have an Alexa Echo speaker right in the middle of the house, on the first floor in a center location. I have also have a wired Gigabit ethernet connection available in this central location.
I wanted to potentially disable the Wifi on the router, but still keep it as a router, and install an RBS40V in the center location using wired backhaul to the router(essentially as an access point).
Same exact problem here for months, same model, RBS40v. I can reset it in the Alexa app and it works for a bit, but it happens again sometimes within 30 min to 1 hr.. I have searched all over the internet and have found no solution as of yet.
I did find this one article, but tried it and the problem continues. Hope it works for you:
Honestly never found a solution and netgear kept sending tech support calls when I was at work. Barely could work with on my schedule. I have a paperweight I guess
Did you ever find a solution? I get this all the time. When I can be bothered I reinstall Alexa and then she works for a few minutes and then it’s back to “I’m sorry - I’m having a hard time understanding right now” and then I give up. The satellite is working fine just not the Voice part.
Same exact problem wondering if any solutions. If I turn off the Orbi Voice Alexa works for a short time but then defaults to "Sorry I'm having a hard time understanding right now. For help go to the Orbi app"

I never had a solution and netgear repeatedly picked inconvenient times for me to troubleshoot to help fix. I wonder if they would ever offer me a device that just.. worked.
He is right thought power on and off the device it might work for an hour then it resumes to not know anything
