Hi, I have just purchased a DM200 to be used with Orbi RBK23. The install instructions for the DM200 only refernce using an ethernet cable connected to a computer. I only have mobile devices. Can this modem be set-up in a browser only without the need to be hard-wired to a computer? Thanks

There is no way of connecting to the DM200 without a wired connection. It does not support wifi.
If you plan to use the DM200 in front of a router, like the RBK23, then you need to get the DM200 into modem only mode.
Got any friends/family you can invite round with a laptop? Once set up you should be OK.

Re: DM200 DSl Modem set-up
Excellent Michael, thanks for the response. I was trying to by a stand-alone Modem to make set-up as easy as possible but clearly my research lacked the key question of supporting wifi set-up. Thanks again for your help.

Re: DM200 DSl Modem set-up
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. A modem/router might do the trick, but even there I would be wary of relying on wifi only to set up and manage these things.
