Same problem here. App shows router being connected while does not let me manage the devices remotely. Basically stuck at the “your product” screen.

If so, please send me a direct message with your serial number along with the current status of the issue you're experiencing and I'll escalate to our engineering team for further investigation.

Re: Orbi App Remote Management not working

Good morning all!! 

Thank you for the confirmation!! Some folks may still be seeing their devices offline. @KMDonlon , I think you ran into this issue but it seems to be working now. Did you have to do anything special to get your devices to show online? Did you have to reboot the router or anything? 

 

Best Regards,

Christine

Yes, rebooted last night and all seemed to work this morning when I checked.

Re: Orbi App Remote Management not working

I still have an issue if connected to one orbi network wifi and try to access another remotely - it times out at the switching products... page and says issues connecting with "[wifi name]"

 

It works if turning off wifi and connect via cellular data

App is back to showing "OFFLINE" again this evening whether I am trying to connect locally or remotely.

I can remote into my router over 4G LTE but then get "Internet Not Connected". However, I can run a speed test in the orbi app and my devices connected to the orbi network have internet access.

Re: Orbi App Remote Management not working

@KMDonlon, please continue to observe and let us know if the issue will persist.

 

@jamienbermy - May we know if you are still experiencing the issue with connecting remotely to an Orbi router via another?

 

@StackMan - Are you still getting the message when connecting remotely via 4G?
