horrible 2.3.5.30

RBR50 + 2x RBS50, wireless backhaul.

 

After upgraded to 2.3.5.30, the 2 satellites keep disconencted from RBR50, sometimes satellites reconnected back to RBR50 after few mins, sometimes they didn't, I had to restart satellites. 

 

did factory reset on satellites, no help at all.

Re: horrible 2.3.5.30

Try a factory reset on the RBR. If you only reset the RBS and not the RBR after the FW update, this could help. 

 

I setup my RBK50 system again in AP mode, yesterday. RBS is wired though. No issues here.

AP mode.

 

They used to be very stable in the past one year with 2.2.x.x firmware

What types of devices are attached to Orbi?
I experienced that latest Orbi SW releases are “sensitive” to some attached devices.
No issues with phones, computers and tablets as I could see. Please disconnect all other devices, forget networks on those devices and attach again.

Why did you upgrade your firmware?

Re: horrible 2.3.5.30

I did factory reset on RBR50 3 days ago and it ... did help. I didn't encounter any disconenction so far. Thanks for the tip. 

 

I hope I don't need to do factory reset on all units regularly...

Re: horrible 2.3.5.30

Glad the reset helped. Seems that when new FW updates come out, if users see problems after the FW update, a reset maybe needed. 

 

Do a backup configuration to file for safe keeping.
