I wanted the Orbi specifically for the Circle parental controls during virtual learning so I could block YouTube/enable YouTube easily (and other sites) but also saw the benefit of starting setting up a mesh network for speed in the house.
So....what happened? Why was I fine for 9 devices, and 10th is a no go? I still have a handful of Amazon Kindle Fire tablets to connect. Did I hit an IP limit or something?
I've configured as many as 30 wired and wireless devices on an orbi system with no issues, so it must be a setting.
Check what FURRYe38 suggested.
What device (possibly ONT) is the FIOS router connected to and how? Does your FIOS account include TV or just Internet?
If just internet, and the FIOS router is connected via network cable, you can bypass it and set the Orbi in router mode.
