Help requested RBR50 + RBS50 with switch
Hi, I am not very happy with my wifi performance and would like to connect ethernet cables to both my RBR50 and the satellite to see if this improves things. However, I cannot make this work and ...
What comes before the WAN cable? (a modem or a combination modem/router?)
Orbi will not be happy unless the router is connected using the yellow (WAN) port.
I sense that the ISP modem is located where the switch is and where all the existing ethernet cables meet at a patch panel, and that for some reason you do not want the router to be located there?
Hi,
Thanks. Before the WAN cable is a direct feed from my ISP fiber box. I have tested the ports from the switch and they work fine with the orbi in regular mode (router + satellite w wireless backhaul).
