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
You two might compair you configurations and hw to see if there is any differences maybe. Theres got to be something thats causing one not to work.
My configuration is a little random đ
Have my ISP provided router going via Ethernet to Orbi set up in Ap mode.
From Orbi it goes to a 8 port managed switch in another room.
The Orbi Satellite in also in another room using wireless back haul.
Main router has ip of 1.253
Orbi manually set in Orbi to 1.252
Switch manually to to 1.254
Both switch and Orbi have DHCP off
I have other Netgear Nighthawkâs that I tested the Nighthawk app on and connected to switch in Ap mode they also worked as long as I was connected to the right ap was able to use both apps with no problems.
