Bang & Olufsen multi room and Netgear Orbi RBR850
I have issues getting Bang & Olufsen multi room to work with my wireless products connected to RBR850 and its connected satellite. Bang & Olufsen is stating that this is a known issue and that Netgear...
This is the community forum, doubtful you'll get info from engineering on here.
What actual issue are you having?
What modem/gateway is the router connected to?
What B&O devices do you have?
HOw are they connected? Via wireless? Wired? If wired, to the router or satellites?
Reason I ask is sonos had/has an issue with satellites. If they're hardwired in, they need to be to the router and not satellites.
What actual issue are you having?
Issue is that Bang & Olufsen multiroom is not working. And this is a known issue and Bang & Olufsen have escalated this to Netgear.What modem/gateway is the router connected to?
I live in an apartment complex with a Cat7 "box" for internet. So not sure of the gateway in the basement.What B&O devices do you have?
Beovision Eclipse (hardwired), Beosound Shape (Hardwired), Beosound Emerge (wifi), Beolab8 (wifi/WISA). Issue is only with the wifi units. All connected to the router.Please advise.
What do you mean by the B&O isn't working? Can you explain in more detail of what that means?
What FW version is loaded on the Orbi system?
The Bang & Olufsen multi-room doesn't work when it comes to "extend" the sound to other units. Such as playing music on the Beolab8 and then extending it to the Beosound Emerge.
Whenever I hear "it comes from a cable in the wall" and is supplied by the apartment, I know things can get challenging.
If its supplied by the apartment, they could have their own NAT/firewall that's causing issues. Some of the sound (like sonos and B&O) need that connection back to their own server and the apartment firewalls can create issues with it.
Does the orbi and B&O work fine if its just the router running (satellites shut off)?
if not, then I'd be more curious about the apartments ISP implementation.- Same issue if I turn off the satellite and only running with router.
