I am runnning rbk753 mesh system with 2 satelites currently, Later this week fiberIq will be installing a line to my house and inside. My question is - will I be running into any trouble? Cal...
i stil have the issue of the orbi not connecting lol, go figure.
Not connecting directly to the fiber ONT, or not connecting to the Calix router?
i have internet from modem hard lined to computer.
i hav done the following
I have a mesh orbi rbk753-100nas Wifi 6 mesh system. iq fiber installed a modem calix gigapoint gp1101x model 100-05638. This is fiber Internet works when connected straight to modem, 4200 up 4200 down. mesh system can not connect to the internet. I have done the following: Unplugged mesh system, Disconnected all Ethernet cables and reset. Hard reset mesh orbi Ipconfig renewed IP After 3 hard resets I was able to get into factory mode. and we still can not connect to internet.
Thanks for clarifying.
The GP1101X Optical Network Unit (ONU) provides one auto sensing Ethernet port capable of 100/2500/10G. (It is really annoying that they do not let us download the Product Data Sheet - requires a login/password - because we can only guess if "1000" was left out by accident or if the Ethernet port does not actually support 1000MB (1Gigabit). I'm guessing this is a simple typo. )
When a Windows computer is connected directly to this Ethernet port, it connects successfully and Ookla Speed Test reports upload/download speed of 4200/4200. There is probably an after-market Ethernet adapter in the computer because most computers come with gigabit Ethernet adapters.
The Orbi RBR750 router has been Factory Reset, and thus needs to be configured.
Power off the ONU for a minute so it wlll 'forget about' the Windows computer that was connected previously.
Most older people would connect the Windows computer to one of the Orbi LAN ports, power up the Orbi, and open a web browser to http://orbilogin.net (or to http://192.168.1.1 ) - Younger people would probably whip out their smartphone, but more on that later.
When I do this, the first page attempts to talk me into using the Orbi 'app' to configure the system, and I go to the bottom of the screen to find the prompt I do not have a smart phone. (It's none of their damn business whether I possess a smartphone or not. I just want to use the web method to set up the system.)
Power Up the ONU.
Connect the Orbi router to the ONU with an Ethernet cable.
Since the ISP provided no information stating that their system requires a user name and password, and the Windows computer connected correctly, select "No login required."
and this doesn't work???
i cant get past the no internet connection when i first login to the orbi online. So i go to i will set it up myself.
and as far as the modem is concerned, the default gateway ip nor the 192.168.1.1 works when i connect straight from modem to laptop. odd as heck.
rebooted both modem and orbi same time tried that,
tried how you did also.
i have tried birdge mode too, hard reseted it after didnt work.
looks like the mesh orbi is blocking the internet after its connected.
its not releasing and givign a IP address idk
