Orbi model #AX4200 - new to Orbi and looking for some setup advice
Sorry, if I double posted this but I believe I had it in the wrong area to start with. Hello, I recently purchased the Orbi AX4200 system to cure dead spots in our home. We have Xfinity her...
I think so...basically run the Orbi router in access point mode and then have the orbi satellites connect to the Orbi router that way?
What's the more efficient way to set it up? I need to keep the xinifty modem because it's cable and that's how I get my signal. I don't really have an issue with speeds just the dead spots.
I honestly don't care about using the xfinity router if the Orbi router will perform better.
You can either let the ISP modem work as a router and configure the RBR for AP mode and let the modem router do all the IP addressing, or you can configure the modem for bridge mode, then set the RBR for router mode and the modem in bridge mode will just pass the internet services to the RBR and the RBR will handle the IP addressing and everything else.
