My old Nighthawk router was able to handle 45 simultaneous video downloads with only a few pause/resume problems. My new ORBI with wired connection can not handle 10 downloads without multiple failures. I had a support case #41885566 with many suggestions - none worked. My last reply failed with "unknown error" and resent OK but never received by support! Here is what I sent which might provide a clue:
I think that the problem is NOT # of files, but rather size of downloads. I tried limiting # of simultanious downloads and use larger downloads (over 1gb vs none over 400mb) I started 14 files and moniitored the download status every 0 seconds.
All files went to "paused" and required pressing Resume/Retry to keep it working.
When one or more files completed, I started more to keep about 10
downloading. This went on for many minutes. When I waited more that 30 sec,
the downloads said "paused" and resume/retry would not work!
After this even checking at 30 secs, more failed to resume; so I no longer added
new files. I noticed that the status info was NOT RIGHT they said
download would take less time that the first 20% did and most files
did not show any times going lower, they were paused, but no Pause.
Looks like ORBI buffer problems?
