Orbi RBK13 Ports
I just bought the Orbi RBK13 Mesh system thinking it was an upgrade. However, I work from home and need to connect my VoIP phone and printer/scanner to my router. This doesn't have ports for that. ...
So I connect this to my Orbi or to my modem? Sorry. I'm dumb with this stuff....
Connect to the Orbi ethernet jack (not the WAN - yellow jack that connects to the modem).
Got it. Thanks again!!!
Well, Netgear got me again. On this model, the ethernet jack is not yellow, but there is a tiny yellow line under it.
The LAN ethernet port is labelled "Ethernet".
So, I went and got the Netgear GS108. Plugged it all in and my VoIP now works, desktop is connected but my printer now says it's offline.. Anyone know how to fix that? It's a Xerox WorkCentre 6515.
I would probably look first at the Orbi web administration Attached Devices display.
Does the printer show up as Attached?
How was this printer previously connected?
