Orbi 870 Anywhere access error
Hi, I have an error while trying to turn on the Anywhere access. It was on but since 2 days gives me an error (see attachment). " some error occurred while enabling disabling anywhere access"...
Internet search turned up this:
Orbi RBR50 - Cannot Enable Anywhere Access in iOS App | NETGEAR Communities
Maybe I have been unclear, but the Orbi apps works, all app functionality worksbut ONLY when I am connected to the wife. My issue is that I can't activate the 'anywhere access' functionality.
Try the Orbi system in router mode, use the ISP routers DMZ for the RBR in router mode to avoid the double NAT condition here. Then see if using Orbi app works, then see if you can connect Orbi app to the Local connection to the system, then see if you can disable Anywhere Access while in the Local connection mode on the app.
How is the RBR configured for AP mode? Using Dynamic IP configuration or Static configuration?
Possible that Orbi app and AP mode and AA may have a problem or the ISP router maybe interferring with something.
