Content loading issues over WiFi for Orbi RBR50
Details of devices connected to Orbi: Netgear CM1000 modem supplying the connection Desktop PC hardwired running Windows 10 most recent update Macbook Air (Mid 2013) running latest MacOS Chromecast 2 Android tablets running Nougat 1 iPhone 6 (iOS 10.3.1) 1 iPhone 6s (iOS 10.3.1) I bought the router a RBR50 on 7MAY17 and it was updated to the latest firmware right away (1.9.1.12). I initially set up the router using default settings. All my devices connected with no issues. Speeds were not an issue. However, upon attempting to load content over WiFi on both iOS devices content would not load tried various apps with the same result. It showed network activity but no content was loading. I switched off WiFi and retested over LTE and experienced no issues. I began attempting various fixes. Rebooted router numerous time (no resolution) Renewed and released leases on devices (no resolution) Tried various wireless channels on both the 2.4 and 5Ghz bands (no resolution) Tried various power levels (no resolution) Disabled Beamforming (no resolution) Disabled MU-MIMO (no resolution) Disconnected my Orbi and reconnected my previous wireless router a D-Link 850L and the issue was resolved. I want to like this router because of the good range and extremely good speeds but having to jump through all these hoops to get functionality is extremely tedious and disappointing due to the price. I hope this can be resolved. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Solved
