Orbi RBR750 doing odd DHCP things
Rather a long question. The essence is: how can I configure my RBR750 to stop meddling with things? Firmware: V7.2.6.31 I have a somewhat complicated network for a home system. Briefly, fibre co...
I think it's fixed.
The system has been running without a glitch for several days now. What seemed to do it was:
1) Hard reset of the RBR750 by holding a pin in the hole for 20 seconds
2) Setting it up with a laptop plugged into the Orbi
3) Telling it to skip trying to set up satellites.The satellites are working. The "Router" is working as a wireless access point. Whether they are aware of one another, I neither know nor care. The non-Orbi access points are fine. It is time to stop tinkering and take the win.
Thank you to everyone for your helpful suggestion.
Had this been working prior to updating FW?
Thanks for replying.
Everything was fine until a few weeks ago. It was because of the problems that I updated the firmware, hard-reset the three Orbis, and set everything up from scratch. Sadly the problem persists, but only when the RBR is plugged in. Everything (including the two satellites) works well without its malign presence.
