I currently have a AC1750 router supported by 2 range extenders. I have purchased an RBS750 router to replace the Nighthawk. I have assigned multiple devices, their own ip address so when the power...
There is no known method to extract a device assignment table from a Nighthawk router and import it into an Orbi router.

I would print out a screen shot of the Nighthawk IP assignment table. Then, set up the Orbi router not connected to the internet and not changing the SSID/password while I create the IP assignment table (On the Advanced Tab, Setup, LAN Setup menu) After the entire device table is entered and "APPLY" clicked, then change the SSID/password and swap the routers.
