Share your Orbi BE370/770/870/970 Series System UpTime
Found on the RBR and RBS IP address/debug.htm web page for best details, please post both RBR and RBS uptime. Please note of any inconsistencies between the RBR and RBS. Generally the RBR and RBS uptime should be same. Home wide power brown outs should be noted if these are seen. Thank you.
The satellite in question is one floor below ~25 feet away
Curious if anyone still gets this issue. I have orbi 870. The satellite in question is one floor below ~25 feet away. I know the suggestion is +30 but this is where it has to go for now. It oscillates between good and poor although no noticeable performance issues when it says poor. That said, it's driving me crazy!Help save my marriage 🤣
Heys guys Sky Q Sky hub 4.2 orbi rbr850 with 2 satellites. so I’ve tried to get this working myself but the tech terminology has me frazzled. As sky doesn’t allow bridge mode I put my Orbi in AP mode and turned off the WiFi on sky hub. Now I get full signal but internet very slow to load any webpage,YouTube etc it works but so slow. i have 3 gamers in the house and finding great difficulty getting access to play games online. i followed a few videos to open ports but I must’ve done something wrong along the way. i want to test it out tonite and was thinking a factory reset of sky hub and Orbi would be best as fresh install. anyone have any tips of step by step guide to get this up and running properly. i have 2 satellites and one is hard wired and other is upstairs and has good wireless bakhaul. i can provide screens of my setup if that helps? The wife is getting agitated so help is greatly appreciated thanks guys DaveMLO Backhaul (Daisy/Star topography)- Wifi7 - Orbi 970/870/770/330
With your Wifi 7 range of Mesh Wifi Systems, in a set-up with more than 1 satellite , will MLO Backhaul work with those Satellites NOT directly connected to the Router? i.e for those satellites in a Daisy chain wifi set up topography.Orbi 870 WAN performance
Hi Netgear team, I’ve recently purchased the Orbi 870 system, primarily due to its advertised support for 10Gbps WAN connections. I’m currently on a 10Gbps fibre plan and have the Orbi connected directly to the ONT using a certified Cat7 cable. The port negotiates at 10Gbps full duplex, and all hardware in the chain supports 10Gbps. However, I’ve noticed that the internal speed test built into the Orbi consistently caps out at around 4.5Gbps, regardless of time of day or test server. I understand that the Orbi 870 only has 2.5Gbps LAN ports and that wireless speeds have their own limitations that’s expected. But since the test is run directly from the router, I had assumed it would be able to at least demonstrate close to full WAN throughput (e.g. 8–9Gbps), especially on such a fast connection. My setup: Orbi 870 Router (latest firmware) 10Gbps fibre connection Cat7 cable from ONT to Orbi 870’s 10GbE WAN port WAN port confirmed as 10Gbps full duplex Internal speed test peaking at ~4.5Gbps consistently Firewalla Pro removed from inline during testing ISP speed tests from ONT are at advertised speed. My questions: Is the Orbi 870 hardware limited in terms of how much WAN throughput it can process internally? Is there a CPU bottleneck or lack of hardware acceleration that prevents the internal speed test from reaching full 10Gbps? Should users expect that the 10Gbps port is more of a marketing spec than an actual performance threshold? Would appreciate any clarification from the Netgear team or other users who’ve tested this in a similar setup
