C7000 – Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Cable Modem Router work with Orbi?
Will I be able to use my current Netgear C7000 – Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Cable Modem Router with the RBK50Orbi AC3000? Or will have to to get another modem. If so, how would I turn off the C7000 wifi?

Re: C7000 – Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Cable Modem Router work with Orbi?
Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge mode. Then use the Orbi router in router mode.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ for the IP address the Orbi router gets from the modem. Then you can use the Orbi router in Router mode.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the Orbi router to the modem, LAN to LAN and configure AP mode on the Orbi router.

You cound also use your AC1900 as it is currently configured and place the Orbi in AP Mode (Acess Point).
