Hello all.
it is true that the network between router and satellite must be numbered 192.168.1.xxx ( for work with mesh) or is possible give free network like 192.168.0.xxx?
I wanted to take this system, but I found that someone was unable to make it work on a different numbering from 192.168.1.xxx, since I set everything up with 192.168.0.xxx I didn't want to have to renumber objects with a fixed IP.
I would put this system downstream of the supplier's router and would like to use the system as an access point throughout the house on 2 levels
Thanks in advance

Re: rbk763 is possible change IP router and satellite?
Yes, both RBR and RBS have to be on same IP address subnet pool. You can change the RBRs IP address to something different. I use 192.168.0.1 myself on mine. I also use .100 thru .200 has a default IP address pool. This gives me room for Static IP addressed devices on either side of this pool

No. This is not a requirement. The only requirement is that the router must create a LAN IP subnet that is different from the WAN IP address subnet. So, if the ISP has given the Orbi router an address in the 192.168.0.x subnet, then the LAN subnet can be anything besides 192.168.0.x The most common IP subnet is 192.168.1.x.
This is the reason why Orbi routers sometimes create a LAN subnet of 10.0.0.1. If the ISP has assigned a 192.168.1.x address to the Orbi router, then it cannot use the same IP subnet on the LAN side.

If the ISP router has created a LAN IP subnet of 192.168.0.x and you want devices connected to the Orbi to be in that subnet, the putting the Orbi into Access Point (AP) mode is the solution.

Thanks this makes me happy.
Another question if I put router and satellite in AP mode the mesh works without problem?
