RBK750 Series - Firmware Update v4.6.3.7
Hello Orbi AX Community,
We are excited to announce that we have started to roll out new firmware which enables NETGEAR Smart Parental Controls on RBK750 Systems. Customers with RBK750 series ...
I spent two hours today with a senior level tech at Netgear.
She used iStumbler app to identify that there are quite a few networks in the area of our residence that may be causing interference.
She changed the following:
orbilogin.net/start.htm
Advanced tab
Wireless Setup
Under Wireless Settings header:
change 2.4GHz Channel to "11"
change 5GHz Channel to "36"
This change has increased our wireless signal by 30-50%.
That said, Netgear engineers are continuing to monitor our devices in order to debug the issue with firmware V4.6.3.7_2.0.49.
The above setting change is a TEMPORARY solution. Hope it helps!
There are two issue (maybe more) with this firmware. Some are concerns with WiFi speeds and some issues with random reboots. Your suggestion is for the WiFi speeds. Thanks for sharing the update. If anyone is reading scoboo suggestion, don't expect that changing to those channels verbatim will directly help your situation as the channels depend on your environment and can/will change depending on the environment.
