Google Meet (audio / video)

[ms13]

So with the situation and experiencing COVID lockdown, I really need Google Meet as an option to video chat and keep in touch with coworkers ... my setup is Orbi RBR40, issue is that I dont see the option to white list an IP range NOR do I see option to port forward range of ports as a generic option (it forces to pick an internal IP only). where do i configure?

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in Advance

What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too? Built in router here by chance? 

Log ino the RBRs web page at 192.168.1.1 and check under Advanded Tab/Advanced Settings for Port Forwarding/Triggering options. If you use these, disable uPnP.

my modem is http://www.hitron-americas.com/product/cda3/ from Acanac, it's strictly a pass through no router function.

yes, i have gone onto the port triggering / forward ... the program is that if i choose the range of ports ie. want to open range of ports 

19302 to 19306 ... then i MUST specify a single IP on my network, ... this is no good since any device my need 'google meet'

also if i want to open the ports to entire network, then i have to do it for every single port .... a pain in the rear, ... i know it's only 

a few ports, but it's the concept, i must be missing where to open ... range AND to entire network

is this a limitation to orbi ?

Try Port Triggering instead of Port Fowarding.

I believe that I'm experiencing the same set of challenges.

To configure port triggering, we would need to know the triggering port for Google Meet. I don't see that information in their guides. Any ideas?

Doesn't step 1 show ports used?
