I just changed internet service providers, and since I did, my streaming apps - Hulu live, Netflix, prime video, pandora, etc. - no longer work. In communicating with both Hulu and my internet service...
I got similar problem with you when replacing my AirPort Extreme by Orbi. My streamer (Naim) just can’t see the music files stored in the Synology. I think it would likely the problem of mesh Wi-Fi . Anyone got solution, or asking Netgear for a software update to fix this issue, which seems not uncommon.
Is Orbi setup as Router or AP Mode?
Mine is setup in AP mode and I have not run into issue with streaming from Synology NAS or streaming from Netflix/Hulu/etc.,
- Thank you. I am using router mode (default). Would like to know by changing it to AP mode, do I need another router to be placed at the upfront position of the system layout.
I didn’t change the mode cause I don’t have another router apart from the Orbi.AlbertOrbi , your ISP box might act as both a modem and a router. Can you provide the brand and model number for the ISP box that Orbi is connected to?
- SW_, I think my modem is a tailor made one from the service provider, not one in the market. Anyway, I believe this is a pure modem.
