Router location
I’ve a new orbi RBK30 and I’m getting low speeds. Vast majority of devices are connecting to satellite and not router. I’ve done all the 30ft stuff etc. I’m on latest firmware on both router and satel...
Can I just clarify. What’s the best way to setup?
Should I turn ap mode off again and re enable router node.
I have the isp router set to modemminly life and as much as I was having some issues I at least had internet.
I don’t understand your ‘double nat’ comment.

I would set the ISP modem back to Router mode, disable ALL WiFi on the modem, then configure the Orbi RBR for AP mode would be best to keep this simplified.
- OK. I seem to have had improvement in speeds etc. I’ll have to test over a longer period to be sure.
I have it working in AP mode.
A difference I notice is now in the orbi app the list of connected devices doesn’t have names any longer it all says ‘unknown’ ‘network’. Is this a side effect of AP mode?
Is there a list of features compared to router mode or pros and cons etc?

In Device Manager my Android app shows everything on my network. Orbi also in AP mode.
