Registering old router
I bought a used ORBI and am trying to register it on the portal. I know it is out of warranty, but since it is registered to the previous owner is there a way to still register the router on the 198... website? I do not think customer service will do anything since the 90 days are long gone from the original purchase.
All is well now, I just did a reset on the back of the router.

Why? Which portal?
I ask because "registration" can mean different things.
As you say, it is out of warranty, which doesn't transfer to new owners of used khit.
It is also not eligible for free support.
If the previous owners deregisters it, then you can pick up the baton there, but it won't get you anything useful.
If you want to use things like Anywhere Access, that is a different sort of registration.
