I need to refresh my understanding.
- Installed Cox Panoramic router in Bridge Mode
- All IoT notifications stopped
- Replaced Cox Panoramic with Netgear modem
- Still no IoT notifications
- However, replacing Cox Panoramic reduced congestion
I don't know how Bridge Mode would create congestion because the router wouldn't be broadcasting, unless the Cox Panoramic was still broadcasting as a HotSpot.
What is a Lorax DVR? Does it record TV shows or security footage? After your clarification, I'll assume footage.
I'll also assume notifications had previously worked with your Orbi system.
While you were troubleshooting with the Panoramic, did you change any network settings within the Orbi(s) or notifying devices? If so, restored the settings.
I'd check the following settings:
- Matching Channel ID
- Matching Channel Width
- Compatible encryption mode
- QoS
How do the notifications travel: from LG > Orbi > LG server > cellular network > cell phone?
Yes the Lorax is a lorex video camera system etherneted to the rbs20 satellite. I couldn’t stop the Cox panoramic modem from being a hotspot. I followed the directions to stop hotspot and the panoramic modem light went red. I then unplugged the modem and got back the Cox hotspot.
What about your network settings before and after troubleshooting?
Firmware could be an issue but which firmware are you referring...the router or LG? Didn't you write all notifications stopped on all devices, including non-LG devices?
As for find my friends” on iOS it was a problem with the persons phone. Cell data off also had to reply to new agreement. I’m still having problems with the lg and my cameras. Still trying to work through them.
