RBR750 and ESP32 based embedded devices
I'm having trouble getting any ESP32 based embedded device to connect to an Orbi AX4200 (RBR750 plus 2x RBS750). I'm using the latest Espressif ide version and the Netgear devices are all on vers...
I have anumber of Shelly devices that are based on ESP32, and they are working just fine with my Orbi.
In the beginning I had some issues, but found out later that ESP32 wifi is very sensitive to input power level. I was supposed to feed it with 12V and the power source (my garage opener) only provided around 10.8V and that caused the Shelly relay to not be able to paied with wifi. When I corrected the power all went well.
Apart from that I did not have any issues with Shelly devices. I have AX enabled.
Another thing that you might try, is instead of pairing the device using it's phone app (I suppose this is what you tried), please try to log in directly to the device web interface (when it has an IP address, when it's e.g. connected to your old router) and enter the SSID and password of the Orbi wifi.
