Orbi and NBN Phone
I connected to the NBN with Optus and received a Saecom wireless router. My wifi in the house was very flaky and always dropping out. I solved this by discarding the supplied router and installing an Ordbi AC3000 trimesh syste,. Fantastic, my wifi throught the house works fantastically with 90+Mbps delivery. Howwever, the Orbi does not allow me to connect my NBN landline. Is there any way I can connect a modem between the NBN box and the Orbi to allow my phone connection without compromising my WiFi system?

Something to talk to your phone or ISP service support about. The Orbi RBR system is just a router and wifi system. It doesn't support land line phone systems.
