No internet with RBR750 in AP mode
I can get the Costco purchased RBR750 to work fine in router mode, but no internet in AP mode. The only thing unusual about the setup in AP mode is that the other router is leasing IPs in the 192.16...
What I determined after several resets is that switching to AP mode gets hung on a solid magenta when you have the guest network on. Once I turned the guest network off, switched to AP mode, it rebooted fine. I then turned the guest network back on in AP mode.
BTW this Orbi uses a different subnet for the guest network, but the networks are not isolated. I can access home network devices from the guest network and vice versa.
Interesting. I would suggest that you let NG support know about the Guest Network hang when configuring AP Mode. I haven't seen this however I don't use Guest Network.
Since the Orbi system is in AP mode, I presume that both LAN and Guest network are probably on the same side of the fence vs being in router mode, I presume Guest Network shouldn't have access to the LAN side resources. Again, something to ask NG support about.
