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...
I have and the best hello working with the Orbi system. Connected just fine (from what I can tell) system is RBR50 and RBS50. Firmware 2.1.2.18. MIMO off and beamforming off.
Factory reset the hello and give it another try with those two settings off. I had to power cycle the satellite and do a factory reset of the hello during my install due to some initial setup issues because the breaker I had off for installation killed power to the RBR50.
It’s been about a week now working fine

Had no issues with any Nest Products, including the Nest Hello, prior to updating Firmware to V2.1.4.16. Nest Hello is now having issues. Attempting to downgrade to Firmware V2.1.2.18 to see if it helps. I wish I noted what my previous Firmware was prior to updating.
Downgraded to V2.1.2.18. Factory Reset Nest Hello and now Nest Hello can't even establish a Wi-Fi Connection.
- Setup a totally separate WIFI using previous Apple Extreme Router. Reset Nest Hello (by turning off the breaker). Established a WiFi connection to the Apple Exterme Router. Placed on that WiFi connection for about 12 hours. Went back to the Netgear Orbi WiFi and has been working for about 30 hours with no issues. Running 2.1.2.18 Firmware on both Orbi Router and Orbi Satellite. Not sure what exactly resolved the issue.
