No internet on Guest Network Orbi 970
Hi, I recently purchased 2 pack Orbi 970, To be used as Network extender. basically after setting up the guest network, I tried to log in, but once logged in, i get a notification guest net...
Hi, I thought I'd come on here to give you an update.
Everything is now working as it should, including the Guest Network.
The only problem I was having, was logging back in to RBR after full reset, I kept getting the password reset loop, but once I sorted the issue, I setup the WIFI networks again, put the RBR in AP mode, restarted my ISP router 1st, once fully booted up, I plugged the Ethernet cable into RBR 10G internet port, tested the guest network, and it is now working fine.
Thank you both for your help. it has been a steep learning curve, going from a TP link router to the Orbi 970. Everything is sorted, including the satellite.
Thank you again
Currently in router mode, with DHCP disabled, as my ISP router assigning IP address.
You'll need to set DHCP to enabled and then if your ISP modem is using same IP address as RBR does, you can change the IP address of the RBR to something else. Try 192.168.0.1. What I use for router mode for any router I put online. Or configure the RBR for AP mode, let the ISP router handle router operations and then you can continue to use Guest Network. Or you could change the ISP routers IP address to something else as well, and use default IP addressing on the RBR.
