Chromecast cannot connect to Orbi RBK 13
I bought an Orbi RBK13 (RBR10 + 2xRBS10) and I have gotten all of my devices to connect except for my two V2 Chromecasts. I tried unplugging the satellites thinking that there maybe an issue of them ...
WPA and TKIP should work with it.I tried with Daisy chain enabled and disabled and it did not work. Interestly I tried to enable guest access and log into the guest network with the same securty and password (I set the guest network up the same as the normal network) and it connected fine and I can cast from other devices. No idea why it works but its working now. Thanks for your help FURRYe38 !
So when the network is open the chromecast can connect. I switched it back to WPA2-PSK [AES] and put in a password and it fails to connect. This is the same securty and password I had on my old router and that worked just fine. Obviously I can't leave my wifi without a password so any idea whats going on? Also thanks for responding!
Does WPA1 and TPIK work with the device?
Is Dasiy chaing enabled on the RBR by chance? Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings

Wow, thats crazy huh?
What happens if you disable Guest network? Just curious if it will connect to the main wifi after this.
Glad you got it working. Odd process to get those working.
