Slower wired speeds RBK753
I have recently bought the RBK753 kit to help with my network speeds throughout my house. I have a 500mbs fibre connection and plugged the orbi router into my isp router/modem. I have disabled the isp...
Sounds like a configuration issue on the RBR when in AP mode.
Take the IP address that the RBR in router mode, gets from the modem, seen on the RBR advanced tab under Internet section. The WAN IP address seen there, set up a IP address reservation on the modem for this IP address so it doesn't change. Then put this IP address into the modems DMZ or IP Pass thru. Contact your ISP if you need help on how to do this with your modem/router if you need additoinal help and information.

Is it the ip address in right hand box in photo attached that I need 192.168.0.25?
Yes.
Contact the ISP and ask for help and information regarding there modem/router. I see DMZ on one of your pictures...that should be used.
- Thank you, I've put those details into my isp router and will see how it goes. From everything I've read online regarding my isp they don't like to help you use 3rd party equipment. Hopefully this works thank you for all your help.
- Just an update, after changing the DMZ and setting an IP reservation the system is running spot on. Getting speeds of around 80% of full speeds throughout most of the house now and double nat issue is gone. Pleased I can still run in router mode and have full app control of the system. Thank you for all your help 😁
Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
