Ethernet connection to Android box
I have my Orbi set up as this: Virgin router is connected to my Orbi router and then I have 2 other Orbi satellites wirelessly set up around the house. What I would like to do is plug my Android box...
Check the ethernet cable between the router and this "box". swap cables and test.
Check the network settings of this "box" and make sure it's set for automatic obtain IP addressing.
Check to make sure link speed on Network adapter on this "box" is set for automatic.
Contact the Mfr of this "box" and ask them for additional help and information.
Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I want to connect the box to the 1st satellite not the Orbi router. Can this be done? I am assuming it can, otherwise why would the satellites have Ethernet ports.
Regards
Yes, you can connect any ethernet supported device to the back of the satellite after it's fully configured and set up.
