Orbi RB 50 - problems with connecting to websites - BRS_wanlan_conflict
When my Orbi system is used I often get a pop-up message which asks for login information to websites, or message that says no such webpage exist
The web adress is followed by - BRS_wanlan_conflict.html
It prevents me from using certain webpages
When I use a different router or 4G I have no such trouble. I've tried resetting and installing Orbi again without luck. Is it a bug, virus or some other fault in setup etc ?
Solutions anyone ?

What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the Orbi is connected too?
- hi
the modem is a D-Link model DWR 956
it’s a mobile broadband modem with 4G card - when I use the wifi network from this modem I don’t get the same problem, so something happens with the interfacing with the Orbi I guess
Ok, so this the DWR is a router as well so you have a double NAT condition.
Couple of options,
1. Configure the DWR for transparent bridge mode. Then use the Orbi router in router mode. You'll need to contact D-Link for help and information in regards to the DWR being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the DWR, disable ALL wifi radios on the DWR, configure the DWRs DMZ for the IP address the Orbi router gets from the modem. Then you can use the Orbi router in Router mode.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the DWR and connect the Orbi router to the DWR, LAN to LAN and configure AP mode on the Orbi router.The DWR 956 is a 4G Router with an option to operate in Bridge Mode. I assume you are operating it in Bridge Mode with the Orbi acting as the Router. If not then do so (assuming that you want to use the Orbi as the Router) and switch off the WiFi of the DWR device. If you want the DWR to act as the Router then you need to switch the Orbi Router to AP (Access Point) mode. Also ensure you have the Ethernet cable from the DWR 'modem' into the yellow port of the Orbi Router.
