Sounds interesting. I will try this later. Never had to use DMZ before. It will still be behind the hub 6 firewall but hopefully that shouldn't cause issues.

When in the DMZ, the orbi won't be behind the firewall at the HUB6. However thats ok as the Orbi has a built in firewall already so it will take over when in the DMZ. This is expected.
