Good morning,
I'm looking for help setting up my ORBI router, currently the network infrastructure is set up as follows:
- MODEM/ROUTER - ISP (to which I don't have access) IP: 192.168.1.1
Ethernet connection- AP/Switch (D-link DIR-626L) IP: 192.168.1.99 < Maybe swap this out for a 1Gb LAN switch. (GS-105 or 108)
Ethernet connection- ORBI router IP: 192.168.2.1 (connected to IP: 192.168.1.2) <If you want the modem router to be the host rotuer, then configured AP mode on the Orbi Pro system.

Thank you for the answer.
So some more consideration:
MODEM/ROUTER - ISP (to which I don't have access) IP: 192.168.1.1
Ethernet connection AP/Switch (D-link DIR-626L) IP: 192.168.1.99 < Maybe swap this out for a 1Gb LAN switch. (GS-105 or 108)Unluckly I can only manage the device but not changet becouse is serves as anaccess point for another apparment
Ethernet connection ORBI router IP: 192.168.2.1 (connected to IP: 192.168.1.2) <If you want the modem router to be the host rotuer, then configured AP mode on the Orbi Pro system.So If i understad correctly i can:
- Keep it as a router an do a doble NAT
- Set it as an access point, in this option i'll be able to create different Vlan (device and IOT)?

- Set it as an access point, in this option i'll be able to create different Vlan (device and IOT)? <I believe so. I haven't ran AP mode on mine in awhile and don't remmber what features are supported in AP mode.
