RBR20 Wired PC will not find wireless printer
BLUF: Wired desktop can't find a wireless printer. Setup is as follows: ORBI RBR20 wired to my newish Frontier router but about 15 ft away in the adjacent room in order to provide a stronger signal ...
Yes, you are correct. The Frontier router is assigning IP addresses to everything connected to it, including the computer and Orbi.
The Orbi is also a router, and is assigning IP addresses to every client that connects.
Go into the Orbi web interface, Advanced Tab, Advanced Setup, Router/AP Mode and change the Orbi to Access Point (AP) mode.
It will reboot. Now, the Frontier router will assign IP's to everything, including the printer.
