One thing an Orbi connection problem does: it causes full-on frustration when your network drops or devices struggle to stay connected. A little knowledge of the working of the Orbi can help calm your nerves because most issues with Orbi are caused by simple things such as signal interference, an old firmware version, or poorly placed satellites.
Reboot your Orbi router and satellites first. Then pay attention to the LED indicators — solid blue means good connection, while amber or magenta would mean a problem. If your devices are not connecting, log into the Orbi dashboard at orbilogin.com, check if the latest firmware has been installed, and then try re-syncing your satellites.
In addition, be sure your Orbi system is not close to thick walls or anything that creates electronic interference, such as microwaves or cordless phones. Weak backhaul can also cause performance drops.
By identifying what causes your Orbi connection problem, you can bring back smooth and stable WiFi without a complete reset.
