ORBI60 - Need to reinstall

[Knorske]

Made a foolish move.  Told my computer to "go back to factory settings."  I now have some Microsoft router, rather than ORBI60.  How can I get back to ORBI60!!

Thank you.

Some more information would be helpful.  i.e. what is the "computer" that went back to factory settings?

The Orbi system has a default WiFi name (SSID) printed on a label on the bottom.  Does it read "ORBI60"?

When the Orbi was set up, was it given a different name than ORBI60?

Yes.  It is an ORBI60, and I installed it with the same name (and used the supplied password).  I have a DELL desktop, running Windows 10.  Naturally, the computer reverted to Microsoft (ouch, ouch).  I, too, appreciate my ORBI60 and the one ORBI60 satellite.  I just need to "get back" to them, away from Microsoft.

I will appreciate any assistance!

Thank you for your very prompt response.

On Wiindows, there should be an icon in the lower right of the screen that can be clicked to bring up a list of available WiFi networks, and then select ORBI60 from them.  If there's no icon, then perhaps the reset turned off the WiFi adapter?  On the Control Panel, click on Network and Sharing Center, and click "Change Adapter Settings" on the left menu.  There should be an ethernet card and a WiFi device.

Dern.  Dern.  Dern.  The ORBI60 must be operating "too well."  I have selected a number of items (even before asking the Community) and the only result, regardless of the route, ends with showing ONLY the connection, with no ORBI60 in sight.

Yikes!

Do other WiFi devices work with the Orbi?
