Can’t access Router config
I moved by Orbi RBK 850 from one home to the next, 3 times. Currently located in a home with Fiber. I have 2 satellites, one using back haul and the second connected via Ethernet. I cannot get my ...
When Orbi systems are packaged, each system is given a default WiFi SSID ("name") which is printed on the label, along with the default WiFi password. In your case, it appears that the default WiFi SSID is "ORBI41". Some customers never actually configure their router. They simply plug it in and use the credentials printed on the label.
When customers DO configure their router, they usually change the WiFi SSID to something more "friendly". (I always name a new WiFi system with exactly the same credentials as the one being replaced so that all of my WiFi devices will connect automatically to the new system. And, if I want to "go back", I can just plug the old system back in and everything will connect to it.)
If the ONLY WiFi system that appears on your iPhone is "my network name", that would seem to indicate that you gave the new system this name. (sort of weird).
How much configuration was done with the new system? using the Orbi 'app' or the web interface?
