Orbi - Ethernet connection
I am looking at deploying the Orbi AC3000 in my house. I think I will get the coverage needed (smaller system is slightly too small for my house). The question that I had was the following ...
...
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is going to be connected too? CISCO DPC3008
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft? 2500
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials. --> it would easily be over 30 feet depended on where I place it.
WiFi on the satelite(s) can not be disabled even if using wired backhaul. When using wired backhaul the satellite becomes a AP in a remote location.
Ok, checking your ISP modem for built in router and WiFi. It's not. Your good here and placement will be key. You should be good there too.
