My Camera APP is being blocked access when in ORBI
I have been using my Orbi RBK20 mesh with three satellites for a couple of years. Very happy with it. But I have an issue with getting my eufy Security camera signals received by the App on my iPhone...

It ended up being a setup issue with my Internet provider. I run two WiFi networks at home, one with the Orbi for max coverage, and a second one with a VPN enabled netgear router. As part of the tests I was running to diagnose the issue, since I saw it was the provider's modem/router the culprit, I connected my iPhone to my VPN Wifi router instead of the Orbi, and everything worked. Retested by connecting to my Orbi, with my Phone's VPN enabled, and it also worked. I could see and access all my eufy cameras via the eufy app on my iPhone.
Thanks again for helping me sort this out.

No worries.
I also love my Orbi, and even more now that I know it's not the culprit for this Eufy Cameras snafu.
