It is up to @mirama44 to decide what to do.

I think that @mirama44 is already confused because of all those posts. 🙂

@FURRYe38/@BoilerPlate asked him to set Orbi in AP mode for no reason, and thus caused him to factory reset his system 😄

BoilerPlate didn't post. Really?

So lets let @mirama44 get this set up and figured out. Been too much posting about it and sorry if I confused the user. No need for any more.

Thanks.

Don't knock boilerplate. I am one of their fans.

It is working!!!

After many hours and an interruption to go to the emergency room, the internet is now working in my outbuilding. Even though I had already updated firmware on the nighthawk, I had to update it again. Once I turned the nighthawk into AP mode and refreshed I was able to hook the nighthawk up in my outbuilding and it is all working!!

Thank you for all of the help and suggestions. I was about to cut off connector ends and replace before choosing to pulling over 120 feet of new ethernet. Glad I didn't have to do that. Thank you all so much. I appreciate your time, effort, kindness, helpfulness. and expertise. Thank you SO much!

Glad it working. Enjoy.

Hope all is well after the emergency room visit.
