Orbi WiFi System

hi,

 

I want to install my orbi but i have a router and modem in 1 so do I need to buy a separate modem or not?

    it depends on how you want to run it all and how your internet is connected

     

    you can ether bridge the modem/ router you have so it works as a modem only and connect the orbi system behind it running as a router and connecting to the isp

     

    or

     

    leave the modem / router as it is and connect the orbi behind it and run the orbi system in ap mode
