Orbi39
We can not sync our internet with the orbi now since we lost internet for a short period of time 2 days ago. I can’t afford to renew my warranty at this time and we are desperate for the internet due...
Have you turned the Orbi off and back on again?
- RBS50 is my device , yes we turned it off and back on , still can not download and the page will say 404 not found. We are trying to reset it again right now. This is frustrating. We have spent 3 days now trying to fix this.
Just to clarify some things:
- The WiFi was workiing correctly before the internet outage?
- The Orbi consists of two parts, the RBR50 (router) which is plugged into the internet modem, and the RBS50 (satellite) which is connected to the router over a special WiFi channel. Both of them broadcast the same WiFi network name, which in your case appears to be ORBI39. It is the RBR50 that may need to be powered off and back on again.
- On one of the PC's, can you please open a command window (CMD:) and type in:
tracert 8.8.8.8
Please copy down what shows on the screen. For example, mine looks like this:

12 11 ms 13 ms 13 ms dns.google [8.8.8.8] - Notice that the first line 192.168.1.1 is the local area network (LAN) side of my Orbi router and the second line is the wide area network (WAN) side which has a "public" internet address. The remaining lines are all the internet routers between me and Google's name servers (8.8.8.8).
- As long as you are testing, can you please open a web browser on a PC and connect to http://192.168.1.1 and report what the web page shows about the internet on the "Advanced" tab. You will need to supply the administrative credentials for the Orbi. They are "admin" for the login and the password was originally "password" but was supposed to have been changed when the Orbi was set up. It is NOT usually the WiFi network password.
