Setup: There is NO ORBI WIFI option in Settings > Wifi
Trying to set up for the first time. I have internet connection and wifi connection. Using the Orbi app, setup instructions say to "Connect to the Orbi Wifi Network" but when I go to Settings > Wifi ...
I had the "Orbi Not Found" issue where it said to ensure that "Local Network" is enabled. I followed all of the steps in this thread, and while some seemed to help, it still never worked with my iOS 14.5 iPhone. The only thing that solved it for me was to use a web browser, connect to the wifi network on the Orbi, and go to the Safari web browser app on the phone and go to http://orbilogin.com
Using the web browser instead of the app solved all of myi ssues and it was really easy. That was after spending 3 hours troubleshooting the app and reseting devices, deleting Nighhawk app, etc.
If you have this issue, just use the web browser! Easy fix.
Agreed. Once the system is setup using a web browser, if the Orbi app doesn't work, should get your system setup and working. Once thats done, then Orbi app should connect and can be used to check on things.
