I am trying to connect a Daikin WLAN adapter through my Orbi mesh but for some reason my Orbi is not being found. Seeing as all of my neighbour's WiFi routers show up, I guess the error is somewhere in my Orbi set up.Any ideas.

Brilliant, thank you very much, got there in the end.I'd already tried using Channel 11 but with no joy so I thought it was something else. I don't know if that's peculiar to my set up though because I moved out to 6 and it's working perfectly. Thanks again.

What FW is currently loaded?

What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.

Do other devices connect to the Orbi? If so, then this particular adapter maybe the problem.

Try this, Temporarily disable WPA security settings on the Orbi then try to see if the adapter sees and connects to the Orbi. If so, try setting WPA and TPIK and test. Then try WPA2 and AES only.

Ensure the adapters drivers are up to date.
