Orbi 850 Can't get anyone to help at Netgear
Hope that anyone has some advice. I have an ORBi 850 that I purchases on 12/26/21. My original unit was not working and was able to replace it at Best Buy after a week of trouble shutting with tech s...
Somethign at the ISP modem is not configured right or not getting pass to the RBR from the modem while in bridge mode. Something you'll need to ask the ISP about.
For now use the DMZ or IP pass thru on the modem for the RBR.
I tried nothing works. How about replacing isp modem to Netgear Cm2000 modem only
I see your on Xfinity? If so, then Ya the CM2000 would be a good match for the 8 or 9 series. Contact the ISP first to ensure it's supported on there network.
I have a question in regards to RBKE960. Has anyone been able to get more than 640 to 730
Mbps on wireles? If yes how?
Here is my current set up. I have CAT8 runing from the modem to Orbi router and from Router to satelitte 1, Satelitte 2 is WIFI.
CM2000 comcast speed at the modem 1,340 Mbps
Orbi960 Set at CTS2347, Chanell 2.4 at 8, 5 at 44, 6 at 133.
* All Chanells max out at 640 at two feed from ORBI,
DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
WAN MTU 1500
IPv6 disable
*(note when IPv6 is in auto goes to 6to4 and speed drops 50%)
Any help appriciated
What Wifi devices do you have?
Most mobile phones and pads are 2x2 MIMO configuration and top out at around 300-600Mpbs on 5Ghz AC. AX you may see upwards of 700Mpbs. To get anything near 900Mpbs or over, a device needs to be 4x4 MIMO supporting. I see over 900Mpbs with my ASUS GT-AX11000 and NG RAXE500 configured for wireless bridge mode.
- I have two questions hope you can answer:
On Orbi 960 how can I test the unit to see if the 6G is working?
Should I be able to see the 6G network as one of the options available on IPhone once turned on? Depends on if you have a 6Ghz supporting device. Current iPhones don't support 6Ghz I believe. I believe some newer Android phones do.
PCs you need a Intel AX210 supporting PCI adapter installed. I have one on my PC. works great.
If you set the 6Ghz SSID to something unique, and your device supports 6Ghz frequencies, you'll see the SSID name.
