For the past couple years, I have devices dropping connectivity to my wireless network. The drops are random and only affect a few devices at time. I live in a 2 story house that is about 1,800 sq ft. I had my ISP come out and check the cables/connectors and signal levels (dB) in my house. I also recently upgraded my cable modem to the Arris Surfboard SB8200 from an SB6183. I also upgraded to the Orbi AX4200 (RBK753S) WiFi 6 mesh hardware (3-pack) from Costco.
I am still experiencing these random drops and likely because I have 25+ devices on my home network. Prior to that I had an Asus GT-AC5300 and RT-AC88U (used separately), which still caused devices to drop randomly. My last stable router was when I used a TP-Link C9 about 3 years ago but that broke down and gave me reason to upgrade to new wireless routers. Anyone experience random drops with that many devices on their network? Can anyone recommend a good consumer grade mesh hardware? I don’t really want to buy a commercial grade router and access points or reduce the number of devices on my network. Thanks in advance!
