Unable to pause internet access using Orbi - RBK753S-100NAS
Orbi - RBK753S-100NAS I got Orbi - RBK753S-100NAS (Router + 2 Satellites) and overall, works. Installed the Orbi app IOS device. but, I cannot get the device manager "Pause/Resume" function to...
I have same exact issue with my Wifi 6 router RBR850 and sattelites
Firmware:V3.2.15.25_1.3.15
App version 2.6.0.12
"Pause" funtion has no effect on wifi connectivity on devices. My kids can keep on playing Fortnite. When will you ENABLE this feature?
I am having the same FORTNITE issue. Once my son is on and streaming his game, you can not shut the internet off to his device (xbox) using the toggle switch. It only works prior to the xbox being booted up which is very frustrating. It's not just gaming either, we have Roku's, laptops, Alexa's, etc connected to the network and unless I toggle those off before in use, it won't cut Internet access while in use. One note, if you are running your OrbI in access point mode, the toggle switches will be disabled. I had my orbi in access mode and used my ISP's network manager app (ATT Smart Home) and am able to turn off devices with that app. The problem is, I don't want to use Orbi in access point mode for other reasons so when I'm back in router mode and having the same issues you all are having - FRUSTRATING!
On a side note, when I'm trying to list my device from the dropdown menu above, the Orbi RBR753 is not listed, nor is the RBR 750 or AX 4000 which I believe are all the same device. For a technology company, Netgear seems to have some a lot of technical difficulties!!!!
