SXK80 Vlan Tag
Hi need some help on setting the Vlan on SXK80. Went through the interface and it seems that it is different from the normal Orbi interface. I was following this guide and discover that i wasn't ...
With all the Models, User Manuals and what I have read in the Forums and by searching, the general concensis it that there are too many variations in UIs and features. Just as there are too many models that make it confusing to chose when standing in front of all of them at BestBuy.
I see people trying to help outside the forums, where the issues was easily addressed by the contributor without knowing that the person that needs help their device doesn't have the same features or UI. Then when the person needing help comes back and says he can't find what the contributor was talking about. The contributor says something snarky and the person that needed help took the Netgear unit back and got another brand that he can easily make work for him. Saying he'll never touch Netgear again.
Too many lose ends and variables. And nobody to clean them up.
Bob, did they ever fix this issue in the firmware or are you still having to use the external netgear router?
I have the entire RBK853 up and running trying to get an idea on any commonalities that can be used as a direction to go. I must say "there are strange things afoot."
Post a link to the thread/page. I'm curious.
In the meantime as an update, I got it working thanks to the external netgear router explanation you posted. :) I ended up buying the router and implementing the "Fix".
