Orbi RBK53 router replaces my old router?
I just bought my new Orbi RBK53 system. Do i understand it correctly that the routerfunction is enough to protect me like a regular modem/router? Now i plugged the orbi router directly to my internet access and disabled my old router. Evertything just works fine, i was just curious for my security kind gegards Lex
The RBR functions just a like a router. Not a modem as it doesn't have a built in modem.
Yes all Orbi routers include a firewall for protection.

Just for my good night sleep, if i read the manual they say i must connect my orbi router to my existing router, see picture.
But i do not have a router anymore and i juist directly plugged my glass internet cable in de internet connection on the orbi. Dus the orbi than have more than enough security?
