Unable to get RBR50 to work as router with Draytek 130 modem

It worked!! Thank you so much.
Just the Draytek. Left the Orbi as an AP. Turned off the Wi-fi on the Hub6
Does the HUB6 have a DMZ? If it does, you can use this for the RBR and configure router mode if you want to use the Orbi in router mode with the HUB6.

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.
Thanks for that solutionWhen 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.
