Found on the routers 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.I have a running support case with the latest v15 firmware not reliably working
I have a running support case with the latest v15 firmware not reliably working for some Ethernet connected devices to the RBR860 router. These devices include an LG TV and MacBook Pro. They work fine on WiFi or on Ethernet on a satellite but not the RBR860. LG is unable to stream on any services like Netflix and Speedtest on MacBook is awful and won't even support a remote support session from NETGEAR. Reverting to the previous firmware and it's fine! It's an odd one but very reproducible and NETGEAR has acknowledged the issue specific to my environment. I'm not sure if others on the RBR860 have issue with Ethernet connected MacBook and LG TV.Orbi RBR863 reboots, connection drops after recent firmware releases
The only firmware versions that work with my Orbi are V7.2.6.31_5.0.24 and previous versions. The latest firmware versions result in slow download speeds, random dropouts/disconnects, and reboots. I have tried updating one by one manually, then a pinhole reset, with the same results. However, version V7.2.6.31_5.0.24 is starting to show issues across my network, such as device disconnects and random restarts. I am wondering if anyone else is having these issues and, if so, how to fix them. The units I have are engineering samples; I have had them since before the 860s were released.RBK862S - lohnt sich der Einsatz als Hauptrouter?
Hallo, ich bin hier sicher im falschen Unterforum, aber ich hoffe trotzdem auf eure Hilfe. Ich habe zurzeit eine FRITZ!Box 7590 AX und habe (leider) nur Probleme mit ihr. Leider habe ich nicht viel Ahnung von Routern, aber ich habe nach einiger Recherche viel über Orbi gelesen. Meine Frage ist nun, ob es sich lohnt von der FRITZ!Box 7590 AX auf den Orbi RBK862S umzusteigen oder ob es eine Verschwendung von Potential ist. Eine kleine Information am Rande, ich habe seit ein paar Monaten einen FTTH-Glasfaseranschluss von e-on (Convert). Derzeit noch mit 100 Mbps, aber bald mit 1.000 Mbps. Die Wohnfläche beträgt ca. 225m² und würde mit einem Router und einem Satelliten abgedeckt werden.Solved2GB into RBR860 but only 1GB out.
I recently upgraded to 2gb internet service but while the router speedtest shows 2GB coming in, my computers are only getting 1GB service. I've replaced all my 1GB switches with 2GB switches and have confirmed 2.5GB transfer speeds computer to computer. I did try tech support but was told because my "security" had expired my router was backed up with noise and that's why it can't get 2GB but I could buy security. I'm pretty sure this is BS because, again, I'm receiving 2GB service on the speedtest but they refused to help me any further because I wouldn't shell out for their security offering. Any thoughts on what I may have done incorrectly? It supposedly supports 2GB.RBR/RBS 860 sudden inconsistent connectivity issues
I have a 2 satellite, 860 RBS setup with the RBR running in router mode on firmware 7.2.7.15. 1 RBS is connected via wireless and the other is hard wired. Everything has been stable and running without issues until 27th May and no changes were made (config, position of devices etc) I came into the garden room where the second satellite is based (hard wired) and the internet wasn't working. The network was connected and in some instances I could start to browse a page but it would fail and speedtest.net download test would fly up to 750mb then go down to zero and then up to 100mb or so. Download tests would go to 600 odd then hang and then complete and show as a completed test. I have 2 peloton devices, a sonos speaker and a laptop all connected wirelessly on this satellite and all experiencing the issue. My iPhone gets the same experience on this satellite but not on the other or the router. I connected the laptop via a usb-c ethernet adapter and it was working on the garden room satellite. At this stage I thought it was a satellite issue. In the house I have 3 devices connected to the RBR ethernet ports all of which weren't working or worked intermittently including a Sky TV box which sometimes would connect to the inbuilt Netflix app and other times wouldn't. After various power cycles including powering off the fibre ONT then RBR and satellites in that order and powering back on in the same order I was no further forward. I'd also tried resetting the RBS' I called Netgear support who wanted me to change wireless channels for 2.4 and 5ghz which I did and no difference so I reverted back to the original settings of auto and 40. This was despite me saying that there were hardwired devices with connectivity issues as well. They then wanted me to reset back to factory settings which I did and then went though the basic setup before restoring from my saved config as the basic setup wasn't working due to ISP router config not being present. Then I noticed my satellites were on 192.168.0.x and my RBR was on 172.0.16.x and it seemed all devices on 172 were working so I set the RBR to 192.168.1.1 and then went about restarting all devices so they picked up a 192 address from DHCP. Almost all are working bar the Sky TV box on the RBR which is still inconsitent. I come back to the hard wired satellite and I'm in exactly the same position as I was to begin with. Laptop on copper is fine but wifi isn't working. Connection is strong and connected on 5ghz channel but the in built device tests on the pelotons fail due to poor speed. Speedtests from my iPhone are exactly the same as before, they fly up then down to zero then up to about 100 but the actual experience trying to use any device is that they don't work. Have Netgear enforced the firmware update? I can't think what else could be the cause and don't know what else to do to fix the issue. Apologies for the length of post!Solved2.4 ghz connection issues
I have Xfinity internet with a NETGEAR Nighthawk CM3000 modem and a NETGEAR Orbi AX3000 router(RBK653). The internet is great we receive 6 ghz connection on wifi throughout the house; but, I recently purchased the Kohler Moxie wifi showerhead and speaker and have been unable to connect it to my home internet. Speaking with Kohler it appears the system requires a 2.4 ghz connection. I utilized the Orbi app to to change my Iot connection to solely a 2.4 ghz connection and not the 2.4 and 5 ghz but the speaker still can't connect to the home wifi. When I connect my phone to the Iot connection it still shows I have a 6 ghz connection to the system. Any suggestions?
