orbi same network not be able to reach each other

[ouloveme]

My computer is connected to the main RBR50, My printer is connected to RBR40 same Wi-Fi network and the IP address is in the same range but I"'m not able to connect to my printer.

Unfortunately, the post contains conflicting information.

• RBR50 and RBR40 are both model numbers of routers which create independent local area networks (LANs) where individual devices are hidden behind Network Address Translation (NAT). (That is the meaning of the "R" in the model number - RBR50 for "Router")
• The product selected is an Orbi Pro, which is not the same as the RBR50 and RBR40 products.

It would help to see a diagram of exactly how these units are connected, together with any switches and the Internet Service Provider (ISP) device. It might be expedient to look closely at the product label (on the bottom) of each Orbi unit.

Sorry, it was a typo. RBS40 ,RBS50 the main device is RBR50

My computer is connected to RBR50 192.168.1.xx

My Printer is connected to RBS50 192.168.1.xx

I got two printers both connected to 2.4 

yet both of my printers were in and out of my network most of the time.

my wireless 2.4 set channel 6 and 5 g is auto

RBR50 is on V2.7.5.4

RBS50 is on V2.7.5.4

RBS40 is on V2.7.4.24

Does this mean not ever, or sometimes?

This makes a huge difference.

Thanks for clarifying the equipment.  Could you look at the Orbi web interface Attached Devices page and see exactly which Orbi device the printer is using?  (The Orbi app has this information also, but takes a few swipes to find it.)

Sorry for not being clear. yes, it just happened recently. it used to work fine. my printer right now it's connected to RBS50. I'll try to reset all Orbi devices and try to do the new setup.

thanks for all the help.

An additional test is to attempt to 'ping' the printer or open the printer web page (if it supports that feature - my Epson does).

i.e.

• Open a command window and type ping <ip address of printer>
• Open a web browser and try to connect to the printer http://<ip of printer> 

[ouloveme]

that is when I decided to post it here. I can't ping to my printer with the ip I got.

So far after I reset all the devices and reconfigured them. it seems to working right now. So thanks for all your help. I hope it continues that way.
