Connecting Orbi router to a Nighthawk?
Hello. I'm sure someone may have already asked this but I could use some help. I am trying to connect my orbi router with a cat7 ethernet out to an outside building. I have the cable ran from house ou...
The cable should be connected to the WAN port in the Nighthawk.
Will Nighthawk's radio range interfere with Orbi's? If yes then you have to use a different SSID and r adio channel for the Nighthawk than the one in Orbi to avoid degradation in the Orbi.
Would it easier if I went out and bought another orbi device to connect the orbi router with the cat7 cable?
The only other thing I'm questioning is that I had to put a new rj45 connector on the cat7. I wondered if cat7 cable accepts the same rj45 connector as a cat7. I wired it all up and used a tester to check. according to the tester everything is wired correctly and it is grounded.
