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 ...

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".
