Nighthawk(R) X4S R7800 Compatibility Question (Orbi)
I have probably made a terrible mistake. I have a Nighthawk(R) X4S R7800 that I am very happy with. I was told that I could connect an Orbi "mesh" system to it, to expand my coverage. Seemed to simp...
- Mar 12, 2019Did you switch the orbi to access point mode? I've had mine in app mode hardwired to a c7800 without issues. 3 satellites connected without problems.

Thank you for all the ideas and help. I finally made it into the damn thing and got it set to an AP. That was all that was needed. The password on the bottom for wireless was incorrect. Once I connected a laptop via cable straight to it, I was able to logon and administer it, as well as set new passwords. Now to see if my coverage improves.
Thanks again!!!
