Orbi Reports Internet Down but It Works Fine
Weird thing.
My Orbi works fine, so does the satellite. Internet is fast and always on. BUT, when I launch the Orbi app on my iPhone, it claims that my system isn't setup. Which is weird, because it is. If I Dismiss, it shows me my Orbi, all systems go. If I click New System Setup it finds the Orbi, then it tells me that there is no Internet connection. Which is weird because there is and the Orbi is using it just fine.
This does not keep me from using the thing, but it's just annoying and I don't seem to be able to make it stop. Nothing exotic in my setup. DSL modem, DHCP, one Orbi satellite. Why does the Orbi keep thinking it's not setup and has no internet access while it is setup and has perfectly good internet access? Speed test works, everything works. Irritating.
