RBR50 used with cable modem creates unneeded network. How to delete?
My system is RBR50, not RBK. I've entered RBR50 several times, deleted this RBK several times, and can't get rid of it. macOS Sierra 10.12.6, latest firmware I use an Arris Group cable modem ...
The sole purpose of Orbi in AP mode is to create a WiFI network. If you are using Orbi with a cable modem, you should turn off the cable modem's WiFi and use Orbi's.

Yes, that’s what I want it to do. But it seems to be creating two: the one connected to the Arris modem and another Orbie 18 LAN with no internet. The one connected is fine. Serves 3 buildings. I’ll check later, but as I recall, different IP address.
You are absolutely right. Just checked my IP Scanner, and it does list the Arris as the router, not the modem. It actually says the Orbi is my modem, which desn't make sense. The cable is atached to the Arris. The mesh sytem seems to be working anyway. I'll see if I can get into the modem; f not, I'll call Northland Cable, but they gave me erroneous information when setting up.
Thank you very much
