Hi All, just installed a RBK752 (RNR750 in the APP). Speed is at 307MB when I connect to a port on the main unit, but wifi is struggling to get beyond 160 in the room I have the satelite connected to, approximately 6 metres away. It is on 5GHZ backhaul. Also main router is not able to acheive the Wifi speed my older (Fritz!Box) Wifi 5 unit which would acheive >300 most days, and the main unti is c250. In fact the Wifi distribution is generally slower than I achieved on my older router. Anyone have any tips ? I am two days into ownership and have already had to reset both devices as all my wifi connections were dropped!
What Firmware version is currently loaded? What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft? What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/31029/Where-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz. Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Try disabling the following and see: Armor, Circle,
Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Set Short preamble instead of Long preamble modes. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).
