It is not my internet modum because I can unhook the Orbi and sign right into my Xfinity modum. I am thinking of buying a new Orbi to replace the "main" one. Can I do that? Just wondering if I buy a new RBR50 and replace it if that will fix my trouble. I have done everything else .ike reset and all of that. Thanks for any help!!
how old is the orbi router your have now?
- I bought it in Jan of 2020. Do you think I can just buy a new one and replace the one that I have? I just don’t know enough about doing anything other than checking cables and all of that.
