I am trying to get a morfe stable system and am looking at setting up wired backhaul with the orbi. can be very confusing... What settings for the orbi do I need to set in the advanced setup section. I have updated to the latest 2.3 firmware. do ineed to setup any thing different with the Arris. Today the orbi is set to router mode should i be in AP>? all suggestions appreciated thanks gegger
I’ll be working on it this weekend have to fish a couple cat 6 cables. What about a static ISP for router an satellites - regardless I will report back

I use static IPs for all of my satellites -- and those are .7, .8 and .9. My DHCP range starts at .10
Works very well. You will enjoy that wired backhaul.

I meant reserved IPs.... Not Static. My bad.
You can use reserved IPs for satellites ON the router. Static isn't supported ON the satelites themselves. Reserved IPs is recommended for satellites. Keeps them connected at a particular IP.

- One more question since I’m running hardwire this weekend, any preferences for running cable from router to individual satellites or daisy cahin from router to one satellite and connect the last satellite off it
I recommend each satelllite connect directly to the base router. You can connect them daisy chain wired I believe, however if the in between satellite happens to experienece problems, this may effect the down stream satellite. So I would avoid this possibilty by direct connect each satellite to the base router for independent operation.
