No Such File or Directory

My Orbi connection works great on most occasions, however sometimes while browsing the web a site will give me "No Such File or Directory" If I switch routers I can visit the site. I also can't get Netflix or Amazon Video to work from my Orbi using my Roku or IPad. This is the main reason I purchased the Orbi. 

  • I am no longer having any issues. I reinstalled my Orbi and everything is now great.

    Hello Maderacopy

     

    This could be a DNS issue have you tried to use a diffrenet DNS like googles DNS?

    Do you still have your old WiFi/router active on your network when you experience the problem?

  • I have the same issue with my setup.  I have Xfinity and am using their cable modem.  I have the orbi connected to the modem amd set was quick and easy.  I am able to connect to the orbi's radios, but there is no data flowing through.  Every time i open up a webpage I get 'No such file or directory'.  When i connected directly to the modem everything works fine.  What am i missing?

        Good day,

        I'm having the same issue and using Orbi in bridge mode.

        Since a couple of days, after a period of 1 month during which the ORBI was perfectly working well, now when trying to reach any of internet website using my devices iPhone and/or macbook Pro, it's not working and I receive the error message "no such device or directory" on the safari browser page.

        Same when using either ORBI wifi or direct thernet connection.

        When I'm using directly the internet box internal wifi, it's working well --> problem is the Netgear Orbi system.

        Sometimes, instead of the above message, I have another message saying that the problem comes from "routerlogin.net" certificate not recognized and that the system "can't check the identity of the site".

        I've tried to turn off / turn on the box and the ORBI I've tried to restart them and to reset them but it's solving nothing.
