Orbi App in Access Point Mode
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

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

Should work fine for AP mode.
