can't use orbi app, won't accept default password, logon times out
after resetting Orbi Router RBR50v2, I can't use the Orbi app it won't accept the default password, it says 'logon timed out'. Rebooting the router, or resetting it again does not help. BUT my phone...
Hi, I just found out that the ORBI app needs to get an upgrade, as it is not working on IOS18.4
I just upgraded from my ‘old’ iPhone14PLUS to my new iPhone 16.
Migrated all the apps and settings and all worked fine, except the ORBI app.
The app showed that I am connected to the ORBI router but timed out when I entered the admin credentials (which are working when I logon via the web-interface).
The ‘old’ iPhone was still working and also the ORBI worked fine on that device.
I upgraded the IOS on the ‘old’ iPhone from 18.3.2 to 18.4. guess what? The ORBI app stopped working on the ‘old’ iPhone as well.
Conclusion: ORBI app and IOS18.4 are not good friends 😊
@ Netgear: please have a look at the ORBI app and provide an update a.s.a.p. so we all can make use of this great app again.
Thanks in advance!
We're experiencing the same thing. Hope there is an update for the iOS app soon!
