Orbi RBR 50 - 404 Error when navigating from a link in email
Getting great wifi coverage with my New Orbi system and speed is good too, but hyperlinks embeded in email (both Apple and Google) trigger a 404 Not Found message when clicked ever since we switched ...

I put the Orbi in AP mode and that seemed to fix the problem.
Did nothing else. Radios on the ATT 5268AC are still active.
Thanx for the fix.

Your ISP modem has a built in router already. This would be a double NAT condition which isn't recommended. https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-Double-NAT
Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge mode. Then use the Orbi router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ/ExposedHost or IP Pass-Through 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 modem and connect the Orbi router to the modem, configure AP mode on the Orbi router. https://kb.netgear.com/31218/How-do-I-configure-my-Orbi-router-to-act-as-an-access-point and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7LOcJ8GdDo&app=desktop

Here is the requested info:
Orbi Model RBR50Firmware V2.3.1.60
Modem is ATT 5268AC (It's branded ATT but could it be PACE?)
I don't know how to tell what mode the Orbi is in whether it is Router or AP
I suspect it's in Router Mode.
