Moving from VM Busines to Vodafone
I'm in the process of switching from Virginmedia Business braodband to Vodafone Residential 910Mbps. I had the VM router in modem only mode and used my RBR50 as router with 3 RBS50 satellites which ...
Try using the DMZ on the Vodafone router for the RBR50 thats in router mode, or configure the RBR 50 for AP mode. Disable the Vodafone routers wifi radios.
I'll try it in AP mode (seems to be the easisest option).
Thanks

- I've got the RBS50 in AP mode and it's working as are the satellites.
Is there any reason why I can't or shouldn't keep the Vodafone WiFi up and running at the same time? I get better speed from that than I do from the Orbi

Easiest but maybe not the most effective.
I faced the same choice with a horrid BT HomeHub. I wanted to use my MK93 Mesh network with it. The DMZ turned out to be the best option. AP mode disables too much useful stuff.
If nothing else, DMZ mode makes it easier to access both the modem/router and the router without having to track down IP addresses for the AP and satellites.

- There doesn't seem to be any way to enable DMZ on the Vodafone router. All I can see is something called Exposed Host which sounds unsafe.
