Suddenly a bit lower speeds from router (Orbi 853)
Orbi 853. FW: 7.2.7.15 (Had this issue also with 7.2.6.21) Not sure if there is a problem. Hopefully I explain it understandable as I am not very technical. The recent days I have experienced...
Thanks I will try to contact my ISP regarding bridge mode.
I already disabled everything regarding wifi in the ISP router. On the display WIFI symbol does not light up either.
Regarding #2. Can't seem to find anywhere to do this:
"configure the modems DMZ/ExposedHost or IP Pass-Through for the IP address the Orbi router gets from the modem."
These are the options I have.
Ask the ISP about the DMZ or IP pass thru. Hopefully it has one of those features.
Might give AP mode a try with the ISP rouoter and see if speeds are better...
I tried AP mode now. How do I do if I now want to enter the routers main login?
Can't use the 192.168.1.1 as I normally do?
No, you'll need to use what your ISP router is using. This PDF guide help guide and explain some of AP Mode configurations:
What I use for mine when I use AP mode. Works well.
Ok thanks,
Its getting to technical for me, I will call my ISP monday. Can't be the first one who asks.
Strange thing is that a week ago it went perfect regarding speed, but I guess they can have changed something in they system in a update or something.
Regarding speed then the AP mode did not increase that so reversed to Router mode.

Thanks for your time.
