Alas, people who participate on this community forum typically have the WiFi5 Orbi system, not the new WiFi6. There is a community forum specifically for that product line: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi-AX/bd-p/en-home-orbi-ax
You are likely to get a more informed response by posting in that forum.

You are in the correct forum. I was confused. I do not post often in the AX forum, so 99% of the notices I get in my email relate to posts in the WiFi5 forum. It was sloppy of me not to read more carefully.
Sorry.

Nothing confused. The OP orignally posted this over in the Orbi AC forum. IT was moved just today to the Orbi AX forum.
