Orbi 750 and 2.4gHz SSID
Is there any way to attach a 2.4gHz device (Ambient Weather Station) to Orbi? IOW, the device scans but cannot see an SSID for 2.4gHz. I'm currently on hold with the 6th tech support person at NetGe...
all of the ambient weather stations rely on 2.4 GHz for connection to the router. if there is no way for orbee to provide an SSID for 2.4 GHz then that's a dead end. unless I can use one of the mesh extenders from Netgear which I mentioned in my original post? is there a way to connect one of these to orbi since they do differentiate a 5 and a 2.4 wavelength, that would be ideal. are Orbi and nighthawk mesh extender compatible?
vajim, yes...i got the Orbi last night after trying and giving up on the netgear mesh extenders for my old netgear cable modem, then a spectrum modem plus synalgos router. i did just find a related thread up here with some good tips to try. eager to get home and try! thanks to all for help, will post results. the support from ed edleman of ambient weather is without equal, btw.
Good luck Ron. I may have to look at that Ambient 2000
