draytek vigor 130 and Orbi (Bridge or AP)
Hi,
I currently have the Orbi system RBK50 and all working fine. However i am switching to vodafone from BT and i hear that their router is no good as i have 50+ devices. Therefore i am thinkin...
Modem Combo Units:
Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge mode. Then use the Orbi router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ for the IP address the Orbi router gets from the modem. Then you can use the Orbi router in Router mode.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the Orbi router to the modem, LAN to LAN and configure AP mode on the Orbi router.
Stand alone modems are preferred.
