Hi all,
I have an Orbi with one satellite. My home is 3,000 square feet with a media room upstairs. I'm reaching out because Netgear keeps closing my support ticket. Here is what I gave so far:
The day I brought it home, the system struggled with consistent wifi speeds. My iPhone , using Speedtest.net, was 10 mbs all the way to 115 mbs but not in any particular area. I tried moving my satellite closer to the base unit but had no luck. I called support and the had me change a couple of settings regarding beam forming and something else? While on the phone, I noticed my iMac that was hard wired was only getting 25 mbs ( I pay for 100/10). They had me hook a laptop up directly to my modem to check speed from ISP. It was 115 mbs. Once I did that, the iMac miraculously started running by these same speeds. I moved on as that problem seemed to have "fixed" itself. Now I still have very Kabila readings on my iPhones and MacBooks. I just hate to think that I didn't this much on a router that doesn't work as well as advertised. I'd also hate to think that I'm doing something wrong and it could be better. Any suggestions? Setting that I know nothing about as I am technology challenged?
Thanks!
