Hi...

 

First off, I want to say I agree with you about the level of response. I had the same problem and was getting frustrated reading the copy paste response, especially when multiple times you said they problem wasn’t the Orbi transmitting, but receiving!

 

anyway, solution I found. 

 

1.) http://orbilogin.com/adv_index.htm

2.) Advance setup

3.) Router / AP mode

4.) select AP mode.

worked great after this. Seems there was a conflict with my ISP modem/router and Orbi working as a router..

 

good luck
