Hi all. I recently replaced my xfinity router/modem with an Arris SB8200 (refurbished) and a new Asus RX-AC68U router.
The wifi in the house is horrible now. I actually replaced the router thinking it was bad. Same thing. What's weird is, the signal seems okay. A steady minus 50 - 60 db where I sit on my front porch which is through a brick wall. My daughters are having similar problems in their bedrooms with better signal strength. In my bedroom, I've got about -50db. Nothing in the house is more than 35' away. The devices say I'm still connected, but I'm not. I have to disconnect and reconnect. This happens every couple of minutes.
We own a 2000 sq/ft ranch house and the router is centrally located in the basement. I had an old wireless router with DD-WRT loaded and tried that as a repeater. Small improvement.
The hardwired devices seem fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
