RBS50 temporarily loses connection during wifi handoff
Basically I'll be watching TV or using the computer and both will report the wired connection lost. I can be logged into the RBR50 interface and see a WiFi device has just moved over and about 30 seconds later the computer and TV are showing the wired connection is back up again. The security camera will also show a drop in the video feed for a few seconds also.
If there something going on in the background that temporarily interrupts the wired connection when a WiFi device gets moved between APs?
