WIFI disconnecting 2-3 times a day with Orbi RBK852/850 (Satelite)
Hi all Just bought the Orbi 6 RBK852/850 2 weeks ago … the coverage and speed is good but the Wifi network discounting 2-3 times a day is a huge headache when your home is set up with ‘smart’ but ...
- Hi … it has been 5 days and I’m happy to report that my wifi network has stayed up!
What I’ve done … installed the Beta for 850 as recommended, then I rebooted the system by first unplugging the modem, router and satellite for 5 minutes before turning them on. I gave a 2 minutes gap (as suggested) when turning on modem, followed by the router, then the satelite.
With the stability, our network is running a lot faster and the coverage is pretty amazing. Cheers for all the help!
Did you factory reset or install and continue after installing the beta FW?
Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Glad it's working well.
Besure to save off a backup config to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
