Hello Darren
I have a router srx 5308 with two wan line (two internet network).
I used till now an apple wifi with 4 airport extreme (apple).
I tried to use your wifi system orbi rbk50.
My bose system is software soundtouch (it's to controle all your speakers in different rooms). You can use it on your computer (ethernet access) or with your mobile (wifi access).
There is no problems on the ethernet. When I used the wifi it only worked withe the apple system. It doesn't work correctly with the orbi system even if I switch off all the other wifi.
I hope I give you enogh informations
With best regards
Philippe

Hello gavisc
I found this in the Bose community from a Mod over there.
"Mesh networks are not technically supported by SoundTouch, but if you can set up VLANs, you might be able to get it to work."
You may want to go ask about it over in the soundtouch community they may give some options on how to set it up for a mesh network and If you can find that info I can help look into if orbi can do that.

Hi,
I askedbose if it was possible?
They answered me I need to create two wireless wifi on the orbi system
One 2,4 and one 5 ghz with two different logins. Is that possible?
Thanks

no You can not create 2 separate networks on orbi you could try to use the guest network that will create a separate SSID.
