    Orbi Satellite losing speed

    So ISP speed measured from my Orbi is 500Mbps(Ethernet-to-ISP Router) , when I check speed via Wifi connected to the Satellite I get 150-200Mbps. I am losing about 300 Mbps. This is frustrating me because I am paying for that speed. There is only 1 brick wall between router and satellite, then...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.11SF-HW

    @Voxel I have reported disconnects before. I since have changed the ethernet cable with the one that originally came with Orbi. Its goes from ISP router into WAN port of Orbi. I have it up few days now I see more solid performance. I dont know why this makes me lose Wifi signal though, even if...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.11SF-HW

    I had password issues because I restored from backup I think. I am sorry to tell you that to fix it I had to downgrade to official stock firmware v2.5.2.4 , reset, upgrade to Voxel and set as new without restoring. this fixed my issue

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.11SF-HW

    Reporting to Voxel, Everything seems solid and steady with .11 . The only issue I faced was my iphone for some reason disconnected for 10 seconds to LTE then back to Wifi. I am going to guess this is an iOS issue. Not Voxel problem, but I did some testing and I think I know why Netgear...

    How Much Total Throughput Can Your Wi-Fi Router Really Provide?

    Not looking good for Netgear, I bet Asus would love to use the above graphs for marketing material.

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.10SF-HW

    I updated to .11 . So far so good. If I find an instabilities I will go back to .7 and report back just out if interest of Voxel, maybe he would like to know for some reason. I am really having ideas that this instability is due to the dumb DHCP of netgear. Things seems more stable since I...

    Voxel To unregistered readers of SNB forums

    you are correct, but people online actually do think this is just a coffee machine and real world etiquette does not apply. I myself have been downloading free software off the net and using websites without double thinking about where it comes from. Just like the millions of people who use...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.10SF-HW

    I will give it a shot, I am on 9.2.5.2.7 everything stable and working amazing no issues. I can not explain the different behaviors I am experiencing. Do you know if flashing different firmwares causes issues , or residue files, because I really would hate to downgrade to official...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.11SF-HW

    I already moved DHCP to pihole. Parental controls are disabled by default. ARMOUR and Disney I disabled via SSH. I have already done this processes then upgrade to Voxel 9.2.5.2.7. Now things seem great. If we have to disable all the features and not change a thing for this to work correctly...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.11SF-HW

    hmmm... i wish the router could point where the issue is. I had voxel 92.5.2.10 many disconnects, went back to 9.2.5.2.7 , mostly stable .

    Voxel To unregistered readers of SNB forums

    @Voxel you have a very skewed vision of the online community. You are living in a bubble. Here everyone is polite and giving likes. Out there, people bully you for being friendly. I agree, if someone does work and people take it and use it without even saying a thank you he feels his work is...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.11SF-HW

    do you have any disconnection issues with current or past Voxel of official firmware? There is some weird conflict anecdotes on the internet, some say both stable some say both got disconnection issues.

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.10SF-HW

    i dont mean to come out as an ungrateful person but, have you done something specifically to help with the issue in that release? So far i am on 9.2.5.2.7 , not a single drop yet. At least nothing worth mentioning

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.10SF-HW

    This is what I did, I assigned RBS to 192.168.1.2. This is what meant with static IP. Yesterday the Orbi went crazy, disconnecting all over the place. Working one minute and disconnecting the other. One of the most confusing things I saw was youtube was working on TV but no signal on windows...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.10SF-HW

    me too it was rock solid up until about 9.2.5.2.7 I think. Especially with ios. I have assigned my satellite a static IP i wonder if that had any effect I also enabled daisy chain topology, i wonder if that affects anything

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.10SF-HW

    Thanks, just these 2 lines I insert them into that directory on the router? Or do I store it on an external USB? Do I have to turn that script "firewall-start.sh" into executable with "chmod +x"?

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.10SF-HW

    Yes. I heard you can block DoH by using a blocklist, blocking DNS servers that offer DoH. The bigger question is, if I block DoT or DoH will the devices lose connectivity or opt to use the set DNS in the router? Another issue was that some devices force their own DNS, which I heard the...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.10SF-HW

    Any one know if I can block port 853 on Orbi via official or voxel firmware? If so how? Reason is some pesky devices are forcing their own DNS over my pihole(DNS sinkhole). This will block all DoT or so i have been told
