Used Orbi Transfer Owner

I Purchased a new home in the prior owner left there Orbi Router RBR50.

I have no way of contacting the prior owner and feel stuck. I want to do is register the device. My Internet provider tells me I need to Renew the Lease before it will work.

Please post about this over on the main Orbi forum:

https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi/bd-p/Orbi

 

Do a factory reset on the back of the RBR unit. Press in the reset button for 15 seconds then let go. Have a wired PC connected to the RBR. When you release the reset button, power OFF the ISP modem for 30 seconds, Then power it back on and let it sync. 

 

Walk thru the setup wizard with your wired PC and web browser at 192.168.1.1 or orbilogin.com
