Orbi RBS850

Hi All,

 

I own a RBR850 with 2 sattelites for 2 years and works amazing.

Yesterday I bought a 3th sattelite to cover a bigger area (Garden for my lawnrobot) and been trying since then to add it to my system, but no succes untill now.

 

I've been looking through this community and others and tried multiple things.

After a factory reset I'm not able to login to the router itself while it's wired to a pc while all other routers were switched off, after that I did a 30-30-30 reset and also no luck.

 

I'm not a IT-genius and don't know what to do now?

Any advices what I can do or what I probably done wrong?

 

Thanks in advance!

    After a factory reset, a web browser running on a PC that is wired directly to the RBR850 router should open the configuration screen when connected.

     

    Are you using http://orbilogin.net or an IP address to connect to the router?

      I connected the RBS850 directly to the desktop, but was not able to connect it through the IP-address.

      I switched off my complete network while resetting and connecting.

        How did you choose the IP address to use in the web browser.
