    On the forum, the Orbi 'app' easily provides the most entertainment.  (Satisfaction - not.)

     

    Can you please comment on:

    • Which specific Orbi system this is?
    • Which firmware release is currently on the router and satellites?
      (On the web interface, this appears in the upper right corner of the screen.)
      (On the Orbi app select the network diagram, select the router, then select the "Details" tab.)
    • How does the Orbi web administration Attached Devices describe the device connection?
      (use web browser to access http://orbilogin.net with user name "admin" and the system password that was created when the router was configured.  [not the 'app' password])
