Cax80 keeps dropping internet connection
Recently purchased Nighthawk CAX80. Never had problems w/ my internet connection before hooking up the Cax80. For last 2 wks since my Cax80 has been connected, im getting disconnected like every 20 mi...
the security questions are for the password recovery option. If you didn't set that up, it still asks the questions but there isn't a correct answer.
In that case, you'd need to factory reset to get back to defaults (push and hold reset for 7-15 seconds while its powered on)
Netgear routers (including the Orbi products) bundle OpenVPN host software which allows users to access the Orbi LAN from the Internet (i.e. when they are not connected to the LAN because they are physically remote). Assuming that this is the intended use, the procedure is to install OpenVPN client software on the Windows 10 computer and use the configuration file downloaded from the Orbi router.
It is not trivial to test OpenVPN because the client cannot be connected to the LAN when using OpenVPN. My practice is to create a Hot Spot on my mobile phone. Connect the Windows laptop to it over WiFi. Then activate OpenVPN Connect and use the Orbi parameter files for the connection. There are several steps documented when you click on the Setup Instructions:
- Right click on an Open Vpn configuration file (. ovpn) and select Start OpenVPN on this configuration file. ...
- Run OpenVPN from a command prompt Window with a command such as: openvpn myconfig.ovpn. ...
- Run OpenVPN as a service by putting one or more.
