Netgear Mesh RBR50 and Nakamichi Shockwafe Soundbar Wireless
I have just installed my new RBR50 router and now I have issues with our Nakamichi Shockwafe soundbar.
So, as a mesh user for the RBR50 router it seems there may be a dedicated backhaul Wifi channel at the backend for satellite/secondary device to transmit data with primary router. As I understand it, this is usually unable to be configured to the operating frequency manually.
So to avoid Wifi operating frequency inteference, which I am now getting, I udnerstand I need to turn OFF my mesh network routers, then turn on the soundbar to establish wireless connection with the subwoofer(s). Stream audio to occupy the wireless connection bandwidth. Then I need to turn on my mesh network router.
My question is I am supposed to use the "Channel Finder" feature (channel scanning equivalent) to search for non-congested WiFi frequency to establish backhaul channel. This is the question, how do I do this with my RBR50?

Can you please print the default starting frequency for backhaul in your system as follows:
- From browser go to the router's debug page (http://192.168.1.1/debug.htm). Use your router's IP address or http://orbilogin.com/debug.htm
- Enter admin as user name and your router’s management password
- Tick "Enable Telnet" option
- Use Telnet to connect to your Router telnet 192.168.1.1 and enter admin and the same password as above
- Enter the following command:
- config get wla_2nd_hidden_channel
