Orbi and New Nest Hello
Just replaced Ring Pro doorbell with Nest Hello doorbell. Then found out it's not compatible with most of the Orbi products! Why won't Orbi work with Nest and is there an immediate fix coming our way...
The Orbi isn't a 'true' mesh networking system so it shouldn't be exhibiting the typical issues that you'd find with say a Velop or similar. That it works fine with a Google Wifi, which is a 'true' mesh networking system is interesting too. That said, I'm receiving a Hello on Friday and will post here if it works fine or what steps I took to get it to behave.
Thanks for your input. Just to be clear, Nest senior Support folks said the Hello will NOT work with the Google Home WiFi because it is a mesh network setup. Good luck with the new Hello, when it worked for a few minutes, the video was cystal clear and the audio the same!
- I found that Nest Hello will connect to ORBI base unit but not satellite.
Is this another case of the 2.4/5G confusion, where the Nest will not connect to 5G?
