RBK753S Router Configuration Settings
Hello Community,
I need help with the following settings on a new RBK753S.
Where do you set the DHCP lease time?
How do you change the admin username?
How do you disable SSID Broadcast on a specific channel? I need this capability for IOT devices?
Thanks for your help!
Admin in the default name and log in for Orbi systems. Can't be changed to something different.

There is no parameter for this. You need to use command line to set the wan_lease. The default WAN lease time is 1 hour.
root@RBR850:/# nvram get wan_lease
3600

Unfortunately this is not possible in Orbi AX. This funtionality was available in previous firmwares but was removed. The functionality is availble in the Orbi AC though.
