RBK50v2 - no safe internet connection

Hi there,

 

Being an IT rookie, I am running into trouble installing my Orbi RBK50v2 pack with 1 router and 2 satellites. I have managed to install a part I think, as I have installed and renamed the network to which I can connect in my wifi settings. But when connected to the orbi wifi network and trying to connect to the internet, it does not work. In my browser I get a message that "no safe internet connection could be established."

 

Anyone any idea what I do wrong?

 

Thanks a lot

 

Lars

    What Firmware is currently loaded?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
    Is the Orbi system operating in Router or AP mode?

     

    Did you walk thru the setup wizard on the RBR with a PC and web browser?

      Hi there,

      thanks a lot for your reply, but I am afraid you already lost this IT dummy there. I tried to set the system up via the app on my iphone, not via my desktop. 

      To answer the rest of your questions, I am afraid you need to be a bit clearer.

      Thanks again!!

    What browser are you using?

    Does this happen on all websites, or only on some web sites?
