Orbi satellite dropping connection
Right to the point: my Orbi system has 2 satellites and 1 main tower. The internet drops/slows down (to the point where internet browsing is not possible) 2-3 times per day randomly without warning o...
I am still seeing a small number of drop outs in the 2.4GHz band (about 1 or 2 an hour) - but certainly nothing like I was seeing before. Happens to router as well as the satellites - just every once in a while they decide to upchuck for a second or so. In the attached pic the red dropout is a satellite and the pink dropouts are the router.
Still convinced that the drop outs are are happening due to a communication failure between the router and the satellite.
Keeping an eye on this - if I cannot get this resolved, I will have to take the system back (I still have 10 days) - but I really would like it to work. Netgear has been responsive - and they are trying to find a solution with/for me.
Hi, how can you view the connection status to see if its still dropping or not? I only know about the drops when it keeps fropping my Skype calls but I wonder if there;s some connection status window in the login I'm missing?
