How do I adjust RIP settings on RBRE960 router?
I'm having a hard time connecting some Elgato Key Lights to my network. I did some research on r/elgato, and several users said the solution is to enable RIP (routing information protocol) in the rou...
The Orbi app does not provide access to any "advanced" functions. Settings for RIP can be found on the orbi web interface http://orbilogin.net Advanced Tab:
p.s. Most "Internet of Things" (IoT) devices work just fine without changing any of the default Orbi settings.
Unfortunately, the Elgato Key Lights are notoriously finicky to set up and get connected to WiFi. I tried connecting them to the IoT network but that did't work.
Something to contact the Mfr of these devices then since it's there product.
I logged in to the web interface but don't see where to change the RIP setting?
UPDATE: never mind, I found it on the LAN setup page.
RIP is usually under the LAN setup.
I disabled 5 Ghz in the settings, so it only has 2.4 Ghz. I was able to get the Elgato Key Lights connected and appearing in the Elgato Control Center app.
However, as soon as I turned 5 Ghz back on, the lights stopped appearing in Control Center.
I turned off 5 Ghz in the router again, and the lights showed up and started working once more.
So, it seems that these lights not only cannot connect to the network when 5 Ghz is active, but they won't work at all.
I did try connecting them to the IoT SSID, which should always be 2.4 Ghz only, but that didn't seem to work. I kept getting an error message.
Any other ideas?
