My Nest Cam IQ Outdoor would not connect after replacing my router with the Orbi. I tried Nest suggestions of enabling IPV6 and a few others. I eventually got it to work by temporarily disabling the 5G SSID under Advanced Setup / Wireless Settings. The Nest Cam was finally able to connect to the network during setup using 2.4G. After the setup was complete, I turned 5G back on. I vaguely remember going through the same hassel with my previous router which was also from Netgear. But in my old router my 2.4G and 5G networks had different SSIDs. Orbi now is configured to use the same SSID for both. Hopefully this doesn't present a problem in the future.
