Orbi RBR40 router set up as AP to RBR50 router
Hi, I have an Orbi AC3000 wifi sytem which includes the RBR50 router, RBS50 satelite, RBS50Y satelite and RBW30 satelite (see photo). I´m trying to set up a supplemental RBR40 router as a simple ...
Yes, I agree FURRYe38, the satelites should remain connected to the RBR50 only. I don´t understand why the RBR40 screws up my network. I´ll have to do do some more "trial and erroring" after the summer. Right now it´s time for summer vacation:-)
It shouldn't if the chanels are set far appart between the 50 series system the the RBR40. Do more testing when you get time.
Enjoy.
Hi again,
Just to conclude this discussion, I tried setting up my RBR40 as an AP again after a long summer break. I tried setting the RBR40 wireless channels as 1 for 2.4GHz and 48 for 5GHz as suggested. Alas, to no avail. Again, the RBR40 kept connecting to my satelites. I will keep the RBR40 as a backup router and have added an RBS20 satelite to my shopping list. Thanks all.
