Orbi RBk852 Connecting to device with no internet
Today I set up my Orbi RBR850 system. Getting the system up and working was more difficult than I anticipated but it is now up. I've been able to connect all of my devices except my Desktop computer....

I managed to get the system working. What I did was first perform a factory reset on all of the satelites. Then I performed a new setup using only the main router. I also made sure not to have any of the existing devices plugged into the router while it was performing the new setup. Once it was up I slowly added more devices to the newtwork. and I added satelite recieves one at a time.
I'm going to continue to monitor it as time goes by but for now things seem to be ok.

What wireless card is in the desktop and what driver is installed for it?
What modem/gateway is the orbi connected to?

The Wireless card I have is Intel Wireless AC 9560 160 MHz. The driver is a from Microsoft, its whatever driver was installed when I installed the motherboard. The version is 21.10.2.2. The motherboard is the Asus STRIX Z390-E Gaming ATX LGA1151.

I do same thing. I also add RBS first, then setup IP address reservatins for the RBS as well.
