    That probably depends on the Orbi hardware you are using.

     

    While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.

     

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

    Orbi - NETGEAR Communities

    I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

    In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

    You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

    I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.

     

     

  • My sad DSL connection does not tolerate uploads well, attempts to peg the outbound bandwidth effectively brings the internet to a stop for everybody in the house. So when the kids show up for holidays with their average 3.5 Apple iXXXX devices a piece

    The isn't any bandwidth limiting features on Orbi AX systems. 

     

    Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the Orbi AX (WiFi 6) products:

    Please use this link to the main forum product list to review and choose where to make your posts.
