Factory reset CBR40/RBS20 now constant drops
Hello everyone I decided to sign up to post here and hopefully get some help from someone who’s had this same issue as my Google searches have been unfruitful. so for many years me and my mom have had the orbi CBR40 router with 1 RBS20 satellite for our internet, that is it and it’s always worked very well with only a few drops every few months in the rooms furthest in the house. recently we found another orbi rbs20 satellite and decided to purchase and add it but due to forgetting our login to orbi app and changed admin and admin passwords we did a full factory reset. we took that time to add the new satellite and the old one, it took quite awhile because it kept saying it couldn’t find them despite pressing sync button on all for bit or only one would connect and the other wouldn’t but if we tried adding other then the previous wouldn’t be found. Long time later we finally got both connected, cool! and then we started to notice less than 10 minutes later that the internet was constantly dropping, I’m talking it drops every 5-10 minutes, 15 if we are lucky. This is INCREDIBLY inconvenient. However our ISP says that it is not showing any drops for them aside from when we disconnected from wall and then after 20 minutes put back in. our orbi is our own equipment so there isn’t really anything the ISO can do other then send a tech to check the lines themselves but nothing equipment related of course. has anyone had this issue that after connecting a new satellite, the new satellite has seemingly messed up your connection and router? we unplugged the new satellite and did another unplug and replug and still same issue, so unplugged old satellite too just incase and same issue, re-added our old one and it hasn’t gone back to pre-new satellite addition connection. starting to regret ever having gotten a 2nd satellite in hope to make our room connections better at opposite end of house. PLEASE HELP US!Nighthawk cm2000 connected to spectrum router. Wifi is marking fair in bedroom where desktop is
I'm having issues with being able to receive good a good WiFi connection in my bedroom. I currently have a nighthawk cm2000 modem connected to a Spectrum router model (SAX2V1S). I do not have the biggest apartment so I'm wondering what could be causing this to have a poor connection? I have a buddy that just keeps mentioning to look for the best modem settings and to change them on my end. I have looked but have not found any answers to this. I am also not very knowledgeable when it comes to these things. It was suggested to implement a WiFi extender but i am curious to know if that is really needed. Any sort of help will be appreciated. I have provided an event log since it seems that's what a majority of people do. Firmware is V1.01.06.Is there a way to get telephone (voice service) a using NetGear Nighthawk CM1100?
I bought a NetGear Nighthawk CM1100 to replace an old Ubee cable modem & router combo provided by Spectrum. I did not realize before buying that the Nighthawk is " not compatible with Cable bundled voice service". I guess that means the telephone land line that comes out of the old Ubee unit. It's too late to return the NightHawk. Is there any way to make my telephone service work with the Nighthwak? I don't mind buying an adapter if needed, but what?New - CAX30 Firmware Version 2.2.1.12 Released

Can someone please help… I registered the CM1200 Cable Modem with Xfinity, all fine, the Netgear shows up, try the password as password, can’t login, I reset the device as instructed, same again. I manage to get into the routerlogin ip with ‘password’ and I factory reset it. Then I try to change the password from ‘password’ and it asks for the password which is ‘password’ by now and it won’t let me in, I click cancel and it says unauthorized! So I have to repeat this again and again until I realise the madness of it.
