RBK50 - Cannot connect wired PC or wired Printer to Network
RBK50 using version V2.5.1.16 Orbi and satellite are hooked up and broadcasting decent signal (although satellite only works within 15 feet of main unit) The problem I have is that although I have...
Are the computer and printer connected to the RBR50 (router) or to the RBS50 (satellite)?
What is the indication that the units have not connected?
- There are LED's on the ethernet port that do not light up?
- There is an indication on the computer screen?
- The Orbi web interface, "Attached Devices" screen does not show these devices?
CrimpOn Thanks for the quick reply.
RBK50 using version V2.5.1.16. Satellite is updated as well. Wired Windows 10 PC and Wired Printer are both wired to the Orbi Router.
Modem ethernet port is lit, as is the PC ethernet port.
Both the printer and the PC appear in the Orbi web app as wired, connected devices. Windows however shows Printer not being connected, although I can connect to the Orbi through my Chrome browser.
