Orbi reboot every time when upper link disconnected logically (not physically)
Hello.
Here is my network at home:
Modem -- Router (WNDR3700v4) for dialing up -- RBR50 -- (wifi) -- Satellite
Orbi is set as AP mode. Some devices are connected to RBR50 by wire, some...
You would have to try a different router in place of the 3700 to see if the problem happens if connected to the WAN port.
Yes, the top led will be pink as it's meant to detect the WAN port connection. Its ok if it's Pink. Nothing can be done with it if using the LAN port. I wanted to see if using the LAN port would show a different result.
Okay, I leave it as using LAN till next re-dial up. I'll update the result here.
Thanks.
Sounds good.
It doesn't reboot this time, with LAN port used instead of WAN.
Any idea?
Possible some odd handshaking happening with the 3700 that causes the Orbi to reboot when connected to it's WAN port. Just speculation. You would have to try a different router in place of the 3700 to see if the problem happens if connected to the WAN port.
