Orbi RBK web interrface setup

Do I need, or is it preferable, to power up the two satellites prior to powering up the Router for the first time and commencing the setup via the router web interface?

  • no, and no. Router first, and follow the directions.  It will say when to connect satellites.

    I prefer to do the initial setup with everything in the same room (unless your FitBit is calling for "more steps")
