Neato d6

The Orbi does not allow the access point WiFi for neato to be recognized. I’m not super savvy but I never had this “discovery” problem before we changed internet carriers

Re: Neato d6

You are probably following the setup instructions:

You mention recently changing internet carriers.  It could be that the previous carrier supplies "only a modem" and the new carrier supplied a "modem/router".  While this ordinarily does not cause a problem, in specific instances it can.

 

What is the brand and model number of the current internet supplier equipment?

Is the Orbi operating in "router" or "access point" mode?

Re: Neato d6

And the Orby is my router. And I bought a surfboard modem. My Alexa hooked up easily with the Amazon access point appearing in my Wi-Fi options. Does this seem to mean that it is a neato problem and not a router problem?

Re: Neato d6

Thanks for providing the model number, which confirms that your modem is "only a modem".  Therefore, you have only one router, the Orbi.

 

So, you put the vacuum in "Pairing Mode", the light blinks, you get to step C of the instructions and the Neato D6 WiFi does not show on the list of WiFi networks?

You are doing this on an Apple or Android device?
