Orbi satellites only connect to Orbi routers. Nothing else.
Thanks for answering my question not what l wanted but l have to work something else out then
NGs EX and EAX series wifi extenders are compatible with branded and non branded NG wifi routers.
yes thats right l am not explaining well
my sats are used wirelessly at the moment but can l hard wire them which would go back to the modem then l would wirelessly connect to them with the tvs phone sonos is this possible
sorry the orbi router
What sort of Modem? I used to use a Netgear Cable/VOIP Modem (certified for Xfinity) and had my Orbi working with that no problem.
FWIW, the Orbi is a Router, not a Modem. I reckon if your Modem also has a built-in Switch, you could hang all the Orbi gear, routers and sats, off it.
Maybe provide a little more information on what you are trying to do.
