To change the mode on your Orbi Voice to Orbi mode or Extender mode, do the following:
1. Power off your Orbi Voice by pressing the Power On/Off button. 2. Press and hold the Sync button on your Orbi Voice. 3. While holding the Sync button, press and release the Power On/Off button (don’t release the Sync button). Your Orbi Voice powers on. 4. Continue to hold the Sync button. 5. Wait for the Orbi Voice’s ring LED to pulse blue and white, then release the Sync button. If your Orbi Voice is switching to Extender mode, the following LED behavior occurs after you release the Sync button: • Pulsing blue. Your Orbi Voice is changing to Extender mode. The LED pulses blue for a few minutes. • Solid blue. Your Orbi Voice is in Extender mode and is ready to sync with your router. If your Orbi Voice is switching to Orbi mode, the following LED behavior occurs after you release the Sync button: • Pulsing white. Your Orbi Voice is changing to Orbi mode. The LED pulses white for a few minutes. • Solid white. Your Orbi Voice is in Orbi mode and is ready to sync with your Orbi router.
