Orbi 970 AP
Hi, Why do the Orbi 973 (2 sat) in AP-Mode do not work when the internet is down? I do not understand why it would disconnect any devices? The Wifi breaks and I cannot access any LAN shares anymor...
Seems that those you block are call to the mothership. I believe I saw that back in AX land years ago. Was attempting to block auto FW updates as they were causing problems and we couldn't stop that. I happened to notice that blocking some of those URLs caused the RBR to go PINK.
You'll need to not block those if you want the system to work right. Nothing we can do with the calling home of the mother ship stuff.
Actually.. this makes sense.
Thanks
Now,
Why does it not work,though, as soon as I block some Netgear URLs only. Internet is there.

What brand and model # is the host router?
What NG URLs are you blocking?
