I installed a new Orbi system this weekend. I pulled out the old Apple AIrport Wi-fi. I connected from the Orbi router to my Fios router via the ethernet cable supplied by Netgear. Here is my situation:
- The Orbi router and the two satelites are all "talking" to one another.
- Devices (iPhones, printers, laptops, PCs) all connect to the Orbi network.
- For both of my Microsft Surfaces:
--- I can log into my company's serveres via Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client.
--- I am able to open most webpages and Outlook works for my Gmail account.
--- However, I can not access my business e-mails in Outlook on either laptop. Also, I randomly get "404 - Not Found" when I try to open certain web pages.
- When I first log onto the Orbi app on my iPhone, the screen says to connect with remote management." When I try that, a box pops up that says "You are not connected to the Internet. Check your internet connection and try again." It must keep trying because when left the app alone for a while, it eventually connected to the internet and moved to the next screen, showing the three devices being connected to one another.
- On my "Smart TV," the TV was able to connect to the Orbi network. However, it wasn't able to access the Internet from the Orbi network.
- I am also surprised that the wi-fi is no faster than when I was using our four year old Airport system. Where is the speed measuring device that I saw on the Netgear website?
Thank you for your guidance.
