Orbi RBK352 Router cannot connect to the Internet

9. Reset the Orbi a second time as you suggested.

 

Is that factory reset too? So, you did factory reset twice, but you need to do the setup again after the second factory reset? I am facing the same problem, after factory reset my Orbi RBK352 Router cannot connect to the Internet, but my modem is fine, as I try another router can connect it. I try reset the modem, router and even factory rest the router, but it still cannot connect to the Internet.

  • Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed?
    Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
    Turn off and unplug modem.
    Turn off router and computers.
    Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
    Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
    Turn on computers and rest of network.

     

    What Firmware version is currently loaded?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
    Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended. 

  • It's been a while, but if I recall correctly it was 2 factory resets.  My router has been rock solid again after going through this process.
