Update the wireless adapter drivers. Both system vendors and Microsoft distributed drivers are often hoplelssly outdated. Not uncommon eg. windows wireless adapters don't see WiFi 6 systems. Issue exists on various Intel and other adapter vendors. For Intel wireless adapter updates, start here -> https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/intel-driver-support-assistant.html

Re: Unable to add Dell laptop to ORBI WiFi network
Thanks for your reply. Just to be clear, are you referring to wireless adaptor drivers on the Dell laptop or on the Orbi WiFi router ?
