Muss das WLAN beim „alten“ Router ausgestellt werden ?

Bei mir wird das Orbi WLAN häufig unterbrochen und ich habe wieder das WLAN von meinem alten Router, mit dem der Orbi verbunden ist. Ich habe gehört, ich müsse das WLAN beim alten Router ausschalten - stimmt das ?

vielen Dank für eure Hilfe !

       What is your "alten Router"?  Maker?  Model number?

     

       If you don't want your computers/devices to use the wireless-network
    stuff from your (unspecified) "alten Router", then you should disable
    its wireless-network radios.

     

       Generally, you want exactly one router.  If your (unspecified) "alten
    Router" has a modem-only ("bridge") mode, and you don't have any client
    computers/devices connected to it, then you might want to configure it
    that way, and use your (unspecified) "Orbi" as your one router.

     

       Configuring your (unspecified) "alten Router" as a modem-only should
    disable its wireless-network radios.


       If your (unspecified) "alten Router" must continue to be a router,
    then you might want to configure your (unspecified) "Orbi" as a wireless
    access point.

     

       Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your (actual) model number,
    and look for Documentation.  Get the User Manual (at least).  Read.
    Look for "access point".

    Hallo mmhffm,

     

    herzlich willkommen in der Community! :)

     

    Wie auch schon von antinode erwähnt wurde, sollte sich in Ihrem Netzwerk nur ein Router befinden. Aus diesem Grund, wie auch schon von Ihnen genannt, sollte Ihr Modem Router, welcher sich zwischen der Internetleitung und Ihrem Orbi Router befindet in den Bridge Modus (WLAN ausgeschaltet gestellt werden, um möglich Signalüberschneidungen zu unterbinden.

     

    Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

    Ioannis
