Orbi 971 Setup Headaches
I just moved from a 4,000sqft home to a 4,800sqft home (including basement) and just upgraded to the 971 (router + 2 satellites) and am having a nightmare experience setting these up.
The first one set up insanely easy but the satellite’s are what’s giving me a headache. I set those up a few days after the router just because I was busy.
For one, it never said it would find the satellites but when I went into the app, it noted they were both there.
After being connected, they constantly connect and disconnect. It will be solid blue, then flashing white, then magenta constantly like it has a mind of its own.
Any feedback on this? Worth a call to customer service? I have the 850 series now at my current home and have no issues.
EDIT: I did a full reset of the system and I’m having the same issues. Going to call NETGEAR tomorrow and see it’s because it’s too much power between the routers and satellites.
