Orbi WiFi 7 RBE973

Orbi RBR50 and RBS50 Should I leave on 24/7 or power off in evenings

Very happy with my new Orbi units. Don't know if I should leave units on 24/7 or power down at any time.

Model: RBR50| Orbi AC3000 Tri-band WiFi (Router Only), RBS50| Orbi AC3000 Tri-band WiFi (Satellite Only)

You shouln't need to power it down. WiFi routers can run 24/7

Message 2 of 4

Satellite also I assume?

I left my RBR50 and two RBS50s running 24/7 for months without any issues (each is on a UPS).
