Orbi settings for nest protect
I cannot get my Nest Protects to connect to my Orbi router. I have tried every suggestion on the message boards and the Nest websites. I tried talking with Nest support but it was not helpful. I am ...
If you could send me your Orbi settings I would be so grateful to try them out! I'm not home but I think I left the IPv6 enabled, even after it didn't work, and then we installed the thermostats. But I'll have to check.
Took a look at my settings.
Internet connection type: Auto Detect (which has it set to DHCP).
IPv6 Domain Name Server (DNS) Address: Get Automatically from ISP.
LAN Setup: Auto Config
Since the Protect uses IPv6 locally I would look at the LAN setup. Mine shows the address it assigned the router. If you don't have an address listed there you may have to add that manually.
