challenge under 750 under AP mode
seek support here about AP mode. I really like the router mode of my 753 package. Now as I want to upgrade my router to 2.5G, I need use a new router to do the network dialing and DHCP and put m...
For my current setup, under router mode, the 750 works perfect as WIFI provider.
You are correct. I want to link some NAS and other devices with new 2.5G router to have 2.5G connection between NAS and other PC with wired connection.
Actually there is another imperfect solution is to keep new 2.5G router and 750 under router mode, then 750 network is unde 2nd layer network. And the perfect but expensive solution is upgrade to 840.
Might keep router mode with the Orbi system if it works better in this mode. I've not seen any slow or WEB UI issues with my 750 series in AP mode using a static configuration. Possible some odd interoperability issue with the Orbi system in AP mode and one of your host routers maybe.
IF you keep router mode, use the host routers DMZ for the Orbi RBR IP address to help avoid double NAT issues seen when in this configuration. Easy to setup.
