HOW TO DISABLE 5G TEMPORARILY ON ORBI ROUTER
HELLO, I own an Orbi system and recently obtained a Personal Weather station that does direct uploads to various weather sites online. The weather station will only connect to Wi-Fi via a 2.4GHZ sys...
I am getting an error from the script when I run it on my CRB40 with firmware level V2.1.4.6_1.0.8: /bin/ash: config: not found
Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?
Something else you might try that the worked for me. I understand that the Orbi firmware at one point did have the option to turn OFF the 5G signal. Last time I checked, it is now where you can only turn it down/reduce.
What I did was turn the 5G down as low as it will go (if you can) then unplug one or both of your SATs. This will cause your WIFI to be sourced only from the router. Take the weather station/display into another room with your Iphone and try to set it up.
Good luck!
I'm not seeing where, specifically, the power can be turned down on the 5GHz radio. I've checked both the iOS app and the orbilogin.net web interfaces, and am not seeing it.
Can you provide more detail on how to turn the 5GHz radio down?
