Amazon Echo showing as wired connection

Peculiarly the connection list on my Orbi shows the Amazon Echo as wired, when it’s definitely wireless. Any ideas how to fix that?

Re: Amazon Echo showing as wired connection

Hi @marcosscriven

 

Have you tried disconnecting and reconnecting the Amazon Echo? Also, have you tried power cycling the Orbi? 

 

Please let me know if the issue persists and if so, provide a screenshot and I will go ahead and report it to our engineering team.

 

 

Regards, 

Christian

Thanks @Christian_R - restarting the Orbi fixed that. Peculiar that it should show up as wired when it's never been wired.
