Manual Set Up Without Smartphone
Need help with the manual set up of orbi without downloading the app. 192.168.1.1 use to work but now comes up with a orbi page to login with username & password. Then when I log in, there is no option if you don't have a compatible smartphone which use to show at the bottom of the page. Now it shows 4 options - internet, wireless, attached device and guest network. What's the new way to manually set up the orbi WITHOUT downloading the app. Thanks.

It might help if you told people which Netgear device you are trying to set up.
the time it takes you to the "setup without a smart phone" is when you're first setting it up.
If you've already set it up, you won't see that option. You can still log in through the browser to manage it.
