RBR50/RBS50 Issues with Nest Cameras
Had my Orbi system working perfectly with my Nest Cameras - but recently the router failed and had a new one sent to replace it. The internet is super fast - and not having trouble streaming vide...
Correct - it worked well with the Nestcams earlier.
Unfortunately I did not save the original configuration file from the original Orbi.
I set up the new orbi as a new router "from scratch" and connected the satellites during the initial setup.
Did you give the new router exactly the same SSID and password as the first router?
All devices should have connected automatically.
Since the new router may have been broadcasting before the satellites were synced to it, maybe the Nest cams all connected to the router? Can you restart the Nest cams and see which Orbi they connect to?
Actually no. I live in an isolated area - so previously didn't have the internet password protected. I've now added a password - so had to individually re-add all the nests to the wifi network. They are all connected to the closest satelittle/router
