need help with RBS 10 Orbi AC1200 mesh wifi

For one thing, their site won't even let me change network names and such anymore. They forced me to set up a new network name and now my first network does not seem to work anymore. Before they made me set up a new network, my network was disconnecting for no reason. I can get the wifi working with ethernet but then it disconnects if I take away the ethernet. Also, they site says I am not connected as far as their site is concerned even though I am connected for the purpose of Internet. What the heck is going on? My wifi is almost 3 years old, for your reference. It was working just fine until this week.

    Hello woodmont,

     

    Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!

     

    I understand that you are having issues with the Wi-FI on your RBR10. You mentioned that you are not able to change the name of the network SSID and that you are not able to use your Orbi mesh networks Wi-Fi.

     

    Please plug your router into your PC then do the following:

    Go to Orbilogin.com> ADVANCED> Wireless Settings> Check the following options> Enable SSID Broadcast, Enable Wireless Router Radio, Enable 20/40 MHz Coexistence >Then Select APPLY.

     

    Please let me know if this solution solves your issue!

     

    Best,

    Kevin
