Can't Connect Amazon Echo or Echo Dot To New Orbi Wifi..Help!
So we just got a new Orbi system (RBK50) and all devices connect just fine EXCEPT our Amazon Echo's and Echo Dot's. They won't connect to our wifi at all. I even tried deregistering one of the Echo's...

I am having the same problem. I just upgraded to the ORBI BK850 (WIFI 6) and for the life of me cant get alexa devices to connect to wifi. I expect a lot more from a $700 router. Anyways, I tried the method mentioneed above and no success. Anyone else find a work around?

If you go to advanced wireless settings and uncheck the ax mode, the echos will connect properly.
