Is it possible to use the Orbi app when the router is just in access point mode and using a non-netgear router? I would just like to be access the Wi-Fi settings

The App does work in Ap modeI have used both router and Ap mode.

Yes and the app only supports Orbi systems. For non orbi NG routers, you have to use Genie for those models.

Thanks for the reply. Just to be clear and I wouldn't be using any type of netgear router (a draytek in fact) just an Orbi router in access point mode with two other satellites. I just want to use the Orbi app to access the Wi-Fi settings

Same question there is a chance to use orbi app in AP mode?

    Should work fine for AP mode.
