RBR50 with AT&T Arris BGW210-700 - setup
I would be forever grateful if someone would please give me explicit instructions for setting up my Orbi (RBR50) with my new AT&T fiber router (Arris BGW-210-700) I have been all over trying to find ...

Thank you for your response. I am still unable to get it to work. Option 2 didn't explain how to do the IP pass through DMZ thingy with the Arris AT&T modem. It only gave instructions for a Motorola or a Pace, so I couldn't do it. Also, option 3 - turning of WiFi radios then configuring AP mode didn't work. I was unable to get back to the orbilogin page after trying it and had to completely reset my Orbi and start all over. PLEASE, PLEASE, I BEG YOU, can you direct me to exact instructions on how to do this. I have tried so very hard and have spent the ENTIRE day trying to figure this out and watching videos and it is 4:45 and I am back to square one. If I had any idea who to call, I would gladly pay someone to come out and fix this for me. I am very frustrated at Netgear for not having specific instructions on how to set this up. AT&T uses zillions of these Arris modems for their fiber connections so someone must be able to explain how to do this.

I recommend that you contact your ISP. They can help you configure there modem for use with the IP Pass-thru feature.
