Re: Netgear RBR850 wireless speeds are dropping
I just tried something after I posted that message, but on my phone that I was only getting 20Mbps on, I "forgot" the wireless connection, then added it again and then I was getting around the same rates as my laptop (150Mps), but it only lasts for a few minutes then I'm back down to 20. I think it has something to do with bumping it down to 2.5Ghz, because when I first connect, it will put my phone on 5Ghz, then toss it down to 2.5, but the 2.5 band shouldn't be so slow that it's giving me 20Mbps.

Re: Netgear RBR850 wireless speeds are dropping
Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the Orbi AX (WiFi 6) products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with Orbi AX and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this "general Orbi" forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:

Please use this link to the main forum product list to review and choose where to make your posts.
