Orbi Pro SXR80 not connecting to Centurylink Fiber.
I’m trying to connect to centurylink fiber. I’m directly connecting from the ONT to the WAN port on the Orbi. I have a static IP, I have tagged the WAN port with 201 and do not have pppoe credentials to set in my area. The one time I got it to work i had to set the mode from trunk to access however after that I lost all access to the orbi. Can someone help?

Hi
can you try access Orbi Pri via https://orbilogin.com?
From your problem description, you cannot access might be due to LAN/WAN subnet conflict. If conflict, LAN IP of the Orbi Pro would be 10.0.0.1 (make sure your wired client uses DHCP mode and is able to obtain an IP.

I found a solution was to make the WAN port tagged as VLAN 201 AND it had to be access mode, not trunked.
However I am not seeing much slower download speeds...even from the Orbi itself. Im only seeing about 400Mb/s down and 950+ up.
Is there something im missing or is the router not that powerful in the Orbi ?

Thanks for sharing this - I am having the same issue - would you mind sharing a few screen shots of your router setup pages so I can see how you set the vlan setting and LAN settings?
This is really frustrating
