Unable to pause internet access using Orbi - RBK753S-100NAS
Orbi - RBK753S-100NAS I got Orbi - RBK753S-100NAS (Router + 2 Satellites) and overall, works. Installed the Orbi app IOS device. but, I cannot get the device manager "Pause/Resume" function to...
I have same exact issue with my Wifi 6 router RBR850 and sattelites
Firmware:V3.2.15.25_1.3.15
App version 2.6.0.12
"Pause" funtion has no effect on wifi connectivity on devices. My kids can keep on playing Fortnite. When will you ENABLE this feature?
I have an RBR850 with a satellite. Firmware v4. 6.7.13 and it won't pause an iPod touch. I even tried and added the parental controls because I figured they were trying to nickel and dime you and that didn't even work. Very frustrating!

On my ancient RBR50, I just now used the Orbi 'app' to Pause an Android phone by moving the Pause/Resume slider to the left, so the color went from green to grey. Instantly, the phone lost internet. Web browser would not connect to web sites. Other apps failed with one complaint or another. The phone could not 'ping' the Orbi router. The WiFi "bars" symbol at the top of the page suddenly showed a tiny 'x' on it. Moved the slider back to the right (green), and the phone works as normal.
Maybe iPods are immortal and cannot die?
or..... Maybe the RBR750 is just "NRTSed" (An Army abbreviation meaning Not Repairable This Station.)
Nah. This is such a basic function that has been around on every Orbi router since the beginning. It's something else.
