How to connect ORBI 870 to a router (Glass fiber) (KPN BOX 12) with VOIP and TV
Dear all, does anyone know a protocol or is there a protocol to connect the ORBI 870 with a glass fiber modem (with wifi), which hasn't got a bridge function (this is not supported in the NL by the provider KPN).
How can I get the ORBI 870 as the DCHP host and als use VOIP and TV.
I already used Perplexity Ai but this also worked out well.
And.. I'm not quite an experienced user...
p.s. ORBI 870 isn't available in the linked products / gekoppelde producten that's why I chose 970....

So you can't put the fibre box in passthrough mode or the orbi into its dmz?
if you're wanting to retain all the features of the fibre box, putting the orbi into access point mode might be your next best option to keep everything working/happy
